Well managed to get started with the sub today - as anyone who has already built this model knows, the first move is to wire up the electrics so that they can be fitted into the WTC tray. I got the capacitors and the leads wired to the motor - connected the speed controller and the receiver - switched the TX on - switched the speed controller on so I could program it - nothing happened. Really irritating aint it - after spending ages metering through the wiring I found that one of the spade connectors for the battery terminals was not passing the current even though the wire was showing through the end of the sleeve. Soon cured that with the soldering iron - now all is OK, forward, reverse, and the motor's even turning in the right direction... whew, so the next stage is to build the tray for the WTC. On page 24 of the instructions the second item down (still under stage 1) just says 'Drill out the three 3.2mm holes for the pushrods' I take it that it means the three marked places in the rear WTC end cap. The only thing is I'll have to figure out which hole is for the on/off switch rod - I'm not fitting that so there's no point drilling the hole for that one - I should be able to figure it out on the plan. As soon as I start the proper build I'll put pictures on as I progress they might then be of some use to anyone thinking of trying this sub.
Think I need a lay down now after all that brainwork with the electrics.
