help wanted

[momo]

hi im not new to these things but i have a problem.
i bought this chassis online awhile back it ran fine untill i decided to do some mods i did a fett upgrade on it ran it on stock batts for awhile.
it was running great was a tid bit faster but wanted more power so i went lith-ion got it going and again was good i also ordered a motor but i have no idea whats in it but it ran beautifuly after acouple runs the range decided to die though.

ive looked at some of the past threads and i can not see any damage to the range transistors nore any damage to the board so i have some pics of it taken apart so if anyone could help me give me some ideas on what to do or take it off my hands forawhile and see if they can fix it. id apreciate it and would pay them or something i know i cant sell nore trade so ill be working on my post count to get a b/s/t thread up wich ill be looking into the rules on that soon.

thanks,

momo

Fried Range dosen't always show on the EP Itself.

Heres a tut on how to repair it. If you can fet stack, you could easily do this.

Hope this help.

thanks this does help hmm do you know where i could get the soldering braid from?

[Kaze]

uhh... just incase. before buying stuff try a differnet remote, new 9v in the current remote... perhaps a different antenae in the current remote too. Sometimes it's just the remotes faults, not the EP.

Good luck, hope you get it working again.

You can get it at RS. not that expensive i think you can also get those transitor at RS I just don't know there specs.

True, You should follow Kaze's advice before.

thanks you two i apreciate it im trying kazes idea with the entena didnt think of that one also its late today so i cant go to rs till monday busy tomorrow.

also i had a question if i cant get this fixed should i just take the fets off the borad and just transfer them to another one or is that not a smart idea?

[Kaze]

hey do what you must. Way i see things is if it's broken and unrepairable(outside of my knowledge), then it's good for spare parts.

Good luck

as a rule its not a good idea fets are very sensitive to heat so fitting removing and refitting could burn them out depending on your soldering skills ,
but at the end of the day you have nothing to lose in trying

thats true so i went with civic and order from atomic the transitors and braid so i can just remove the old ones and see if that helps i dont really think anything happend to my board so ill do this first.
