Just purchased a S/H Hobby models RC crane.
Everything works
Both tracks forward/reverse
Jib up/down
Grab up down
The only downside is that the body does not turn on the chassis ( i was advised about this)
anticlockwise it is dead
Clockwise a motor runs but nothing moves

Question, what is the best method of finding out the cause esp for the dead anti clockwise action
clockwise appears to be mechanical
I dont think my grandson (who is diggers,cranes,JCB, tractor mad) will worry too much about it ....but his father, thats a ifferent story
