Lith problems? You tell me!

[THE EDJ]

my liths are being strange, and im not sure whats going on with them, if its normal, or if something is wrong. i got them all installed and i wanted to test them out, make sure i did all the connections properly, etc. the motor wont turn and the steering doesnt work either. i was very careful not to touch the antenna to a powersource and the resistors there look fine. when i do plug the liths in, my steering centers as it should, but then the car wont do anything else, crystals are all the same, the drivtrain isnt binding, and the servo arm is in the slot. i charged the batteries a little while (half an hour or so), and the charger says they are charging, so i know i did that right. do the batteries need to be completely charged to work, or do they work on a partial charge?

so any ideas whats wrong? any held would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

could be that they arent charged all the way or your connections are bad. double check everything and make u got the wires in the right places.

alright, im waiting on that, any other ideas folks?

could be fried batts. where did u get them from?

xmods international. i dont think they are fried though, if i tap the ends of the wires together i get a spark

Did you solder the wires to the ends of the batteries? If so I have heard they won't take alot of heat.

could also be ur charger dont work the batteries will turn the led onthe charger on.if there is a visible fuse on the charger check it
.if not that its ur wiring.

i got everything fixed and **** is the car fast, so much torque i can barely even control it on the LOW throttle setting. turned out the problem was a broken wire between the receiver and the servo, a quick soldering job fixed that up and now the car runs like a dream.
