Transmission - Forward/Reverse Shifting

If your tranny is not shifting from forward to reverse (or vice versa) properly, start by looking at the servo and linkage.

  1. Make sure the shifter servo is good and strong.
    Work the shifter back and forth using your radio to test. Make sure you have a fully charged battery pack. If you're using all stock parts, then do the Channel 4 Mod
  2. Make sure the linkage is all in good order and adjusted correctly.

If all those items are good, then you may need to take the tranny apart and look around. Take the shifter mechanism apart and make sure there is no bent or binding parts. Fixing a forward/reverse shifting problem is usually rather easy, so just take your time and look around. You'll get it.
