| I need a little help from the collective here.
After 7 years of hard abuse Scout's Panzer 4 has developed a gremlin, the tank for some reason will no longer turn left. It can go backward and forward with no problem, and turns right without an issue. There is nothing wrong with tracks, so no jamming. It's running on a Clark T-20 (maybe T-22?) and I even reset back to the factory settings.
If anyone has any suggest, I'd appreciate it.

| I did played with the trims, but it had no affect. I did recently switch to a different controller a few weeks ago, maybe I try another controller tonight.

| Swap the motor leads. See if the problem follows. If so, bad motor or output from the board.

| Good news! I was able to get rid of the gremlin.
Bad news! The indestructible Panzer 4 is ready for battle.
Turns out it was just a bad receiver.

Turns out it was just a bad receiver. Good news for those of us who are permanently drawn to battle versus Team Sherman  |
