Title: Firing randomly
Post by: slayer431 on March 13, 2019, 05:41:22 PM
Hi Luke, I have tried looking at snoop, as soon as I hit snoop the cannon fires, it also fires when I activate my fire button, everything seems to work. It is just randomly firing, along with recoil since it is setup to recoil when firing. I have enclosed pics of the motors, function and battle tabs that I am currently running. I just don't see where or how it is doing it randomly. Do the 5 switches need to be in a certain position or something I am not seeing?Thanks

The most likely cause is that your cannon fire channel (Aux 3) is hovering around the trip point (between position 1 and 2). Check the end-points for that channel in your transmitter. Also observe that channel while doing "Read Radio," and make sure OP Config is reading the two discrete positions solidly. Possibly you may need to "Save Min/Max" once more and make sure it has correctly recorded the full range of that channel.

Hey Luke, I figured out why it was firing randomly in case someone else has the same issue. My AUX 3 was the trainer switch and it just didn't like the positions I guess as soon as I switched it it worked fine. Thanks for all your assistance.

Probably could have been corrected by re-running Radio Setup, or checking the trainer switch end points, but either way glad you got it working and thank you for reporting back.
