Re: Total loss?

You probably killed your RX. The motors need relubricating or the bearings will die also. The servos will have the same problems as they have motors in them also.

Re: Total loss?

The RX is the receiver the TX is the transmitter. The best thing to use on your motors is a light machine oil like 3in1. I hope this helps as you have a tough problem there for anyone not just a newbee. I wish you good luck and don't give up as this is a great hobby. Feel free to ask anything you need to know as there is a bunch of great guys on here.
