Nosram help

Post by Ant46 »

Hi, whilst in lockdown my folks had a clear out and I was reunited with my old pb mini mustang from the 80s. I got a new battery hoping things could be fired up, on connection the car fires up in forward, pulling the trigger on the transmitter stops it!

I am not sure what model of nosram it is, it’s circa 87 and have no paperwork or manuals.

Any ideas on what this is and also what the issue is? If anyone also knows what each of the setting controls do it would be super helpful.

Try reversing the throttle channel on the transmitter. Then adjust the throttle trim and neutral pot to get the car to stop at neutral trigger.

Sorry I don't know what the model is.

Typically the 3 adjustment pots on old school speed controls are for adjusting the Neutral point, Full speed, and brakes. You will have to try adjusting each independently to figure out which does what.
