It's alive! but it's not moving. It's the Victor 883's they have this yellow flashing light, so I have no clue?

Just wondering where the gears came from?

Don't Victors have some odd system whereby you need to also have a special booster/adapter for them to operate on normal PWM signals?
I don't know this is the first time I use them.
I hope there is someone here who has the answer.
do you have booster cables on your victors?
These maybe:

I've never used Victors so don't know for sure. Some people on here do use them though and should be able to help.
Yes I do have booster cables (PWM single signal booster)Quote:

Do your Victors work on their own without the mixer?
Are the booster cables plugged into the Victor units the correct way round.
As far as I remember, a flashing amber LED means that the Victors are not receiving a valid radio signal.
I just pulled the power plug in and out off the Receiver, and the motors work for 1 second It seems like the power is not going to the receiver.
Well I got my right side motor working but my left is not. I change the receiver to the Etronix pulse without the mixer.
all of what your saying sounds like problems ive had before with the same set up, problem is its been over half a year since ive touched the robot so i litterally cnt remember how i solved all the problems i had lol, but the flashing yellow light problem used to happen to mine when i used the robots weapon as the voltage spike would crash/reset the speedos/reciever, cant remember which lol you can buy or make a capacitor that plugs into your reciever which might solve your problem, as that helped with mine before

Good news I got Mr Pink working, the problem was one of the booster cables was plugged the wrong way :oops:
So I missed Kidderminster but I still have Maidstone in November too go to.
At the mean time here's a picture.

why don't you go today?
I don't think I can get the armour on today because my drill bit's well wear out and there not good quality.
I can try and see.
Looks like it will be solid as a rock with that armour in place.
How thick are the sides? They look like at least 8mm :shock:
There 4mm and I don't have enough hardox for the top so I'll have to use Aluminium Plate.
