Hey people. I'm new :newstuff: in RC, and I bought AM ZERO
http://www.wonderhobby.com/newrarertf4z.html
So the problem is:
1. When I'm pushing the gas to the top (maximum) everything just turn off - engine, servors :banghead:
2. I think it can be because of battery - when the gas on the middle and I'm playing with servors, the engine slows down
3.It's a wierd way to turn on reciver: there is 2 switches (on of them is red and black (simple)), turn on the black switch and push on red, after turn it off, after turn on black again and servors start to work, and engine can be turn on with red swith

So, is anybody knows whats wrong with that airplane? May be I just need to replace the battery to more powerfull, like 2000Mah? If yes, how much it can cost and where is better to buy?
Thank you :thumbup:

Sounds like the battery isn't charged all of the way. 1 of the switches is for the receiver, servos etc. The push switch is most likely to arm the electric motor after you turn the system on....

I believe John is right on all accounts(I had a similar e-plane).

My suggestions would be:
First discarge your batterey. Once it cools off recarge it for about 3 hours or until it is warm. After recharging, reinstall it back into the plane. Next, turn on your transmitter and make sure the throttle is off. Then flip the black switch to "on". Follow that by pressing the "push switch" button. Then gradually play with all of the contols to make sure they work properly. If they don't, you either have a bad battery or maybe even a bad ESC.

Or maybe not :P
