Mark.Wadsworth Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi I bought a micro failsafe to fit to my rascal. Does anyone know what screws etc that i have to take out to access my servo as you cannot get to the plug through the gromit hole? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy122 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi there mate Failsafes plug into the throttle channel on your reciever box - then the servo plugs into the failsafe Access is fairly easy mate on most cars U might have to remove a few Screws or body-clips to open the radio box up Ziggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rc 4 life Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 yep what ziggy said. just a quick warning though trying to put a failsafe into the rascal's radio box is extremely annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark.Wadsworth Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi Thanks for the comments. The main i issue that can see on the rascal is to get into the receiver box, it appears that i have to take out all the screws where the throttle linkage etc is, should this be the case?

fisher Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 no there is three screws that are at the front that screw through another piece of carbon fibre(what ever its made of) loosen them off a bit but dont take them all the way out, now there is a screw next to where your aerial pokes out unscrew that and there is one more i think its next to a hole drilled in the deck (may be a bit of black plastic in it) unscrew that also take out the black gromit thing. now because you have loosened off the screws at the front you can lift the deck up and slide the box out (you have to lift it high enough so the bits that stick up from the radio box arent in the top deck any more) this is how i did mine HTH?

Mark.Wadsworth Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hi I managed to fit my fail safe onto my rascal. However, when i use it i have a problem particulary when i apply the brake a couple of times, you can see the led go to red and then when you release the brake it goes back to green after a split second but this is making it hard to drive as its not braking as i want. does anyone else have this problem? Can any one tell me which setting i should be using 1 or 2 or 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
