Goes without saying but ill say it anyway. Make sure you have fresh batteries in the transmitter
Ended up sending it in. They replaced the main board an ESC and a motor. So grateful for their excellent customer service. I was ready to pay whatever the charge was, but they didn't bill me. Who...
I want to add to the kudos. Traxxas customer service is excellent. I had a problem with my aton. Caused by a mishap that was all on me. I went through all of the steps they asked me to try and it...
COVER YOUR AIR BRAKES!!!!!
I'm struggling to understand exactly what you mean by this ?
Yeah one of the blades definitely does not spin as freely as the others. I just sent an email to traxxas support.
My aton has been sitting for a year. It was operating fine before I put it away. I tried to fly it today, but it won't arm. Fresh batteries in the controller and tried with two different batteries...
Fyi you can't do flips in the film mode. Which would be safest for learning
I would not recommend for 9 year old. It's pretty powerful and damage people and property pretty quickly if it gets out of control.
I had mine land in the bottom of my neighbors pool. Fished it out quickly and took out the battery. Took of the canopy and Put it in front of a box fan overnight until l I got to the store to by a...
What are your experiences doing multiple flips manually. It's pretty simple if you use the button and let the computer do it, but have any of you been able to achieve something similar with just the...
I think I've spent too much time in sport mode. Trying to force it do things that are better done in expert mode. As a result, moving to expert mode I am running into the ground a lot. Granted I...
Sorry for your loss. I hope you get it back.
So was it the props in wrong place?
Yes both my 3000 20c and 5000 20c bloated quite quickly. Granted my 5000 was involved in a water landing, but probably only have 8 to 10 flights on it. The 3000 lasted about 4 months of weekend use...
I just got the 4000 25c from traxxas. I only have a few flights on it, but find it to be my favorite of the three that traxxas offers so far. Feels more powerful than the 3000 and way more nimble...
But why would it go up in the air first? Wouldn't it immediately start tilting to the side and dig the props into the ground?
Roger were you flying FPV With goggles or just line of sight?
Thanks for the video links. Unfortunately it has been super windy this weekend and have not had a chance to try.
The flips are fun, but doing a loop seems like the next step of the fun. Like extra fun
Can anyone share some video of a power loop that is not from onboard video perspective. I've tried searching YouTube but have been unsuccessful. I'm wanting to try it myself, but would really like to...
mine has been in the top of a tree and the bottom of a pool ;) still ticking
cool thanks for sharing
Had mine for about 4 months. It came with the latest firmware already installed. No problems.....except for the neighbors pool.....but that was human error.
Thanks again. Had it out this afternoon. So much fun!
Happy to say that it it powered up today and I was able to fly it around. I didn't have any rice at first, so I had it under a high speed fan for a night till I got the store and bought a 20 lb bag...
