My Seawolf WTC is all completed - electrics, servos etc all installed and working OK, now I can move onto the next stage which is the steering gear and the rear section of the sub...... however I spent quite a long time this afternoon trying to get the two servos working. The motor via the speed controller worked OK but not the servos - so I tried them in my other boat in the spare receiver slot - they worked OK... then I did some receiver swapping and TX crystal swapping - everything seemed to work OK so I reassembled everthing on the submarine tray and lo and behold one of them worked and one didn't. Eventually I found out what I had done wrong .... I didn't realise that the servo connecting sockets would go into the TX either way round - I had simply got them the wrong way round and as soon as I got them the right way they were OK. Bit embarrasing having to admit that but I've only built one model before this sub and I must have got lucky when I plugged in the first servos. Anyway my mistake might help someone else to realise that the plugs only go one way - it's a wonder I didn't damage something knowing my luck. hey ho..
