I am having a problem with my MSA-10 that I know is my fault but I do not know what to do about it. I have two servos hooked up into the unit and absolutly nothing is happening. I know this is not the unit because both the MSA-10's that I have are both doing nothing. The red light is on and everything. The question is this...How do I get this to work. I have had no problems previously with these units but for some reason I cannot remember or figuer out what I am doing wrong to get these servos to move. I have read the manual for them and I just cannot seem to get this working. I have set it to 0 and 9 to see what happens and the servos still do not move. I have even tried resetting the unit and still I cannot seem to figuer out what I am doing wrong. Tell me what I must do in order to get this to work
Thanks Chris |

First check the polarity of the servo wires at the plug to assure they match Futaba polarity. Not likely the culprit but worth looking at.
Not being directly familiar with the MSA 10, if the design is similar to a Matchbox, verify that the battery jumper is in place if not using a secondary battery for power. Insure the signal wire is installed between the receiver and the MSA 10. If you're trying to set up an aileron with paired servos on an aux channel be sure you have the aux channel enabled through the tx. The flap function has to be disabled with some transmitters, along with enabling the flapperon function. With some transmitters you may have to "assign" the channel to be used for the left wing aileron but that's pretty uncommon. Last edited by Tired Old Man; 06-07-2009 at 11:24 AM. |

What is funny is that I tried all of that. I just do not know what I am missing. My next question though is if my polarity is wrong or even it is correct if I switch this will I damage anythng or have I damaged anything? Because If I put the Servos directly into the reciever they work...but its when I plug the MSA-10 in the servos in the MSA-10 do not work..but the other servos in the reciever to. Which leads me to the fact that its something I am doing...Just cannot figuer out what.
