  • Gear Sequencer in the FW Mustang

    Here's something interesting.
    I got all the L/G and clam shell door servos all hooked up in the new wings an tested each individually, all worked fine. So I hooked them up o the sequencer and ran the unit as a whole, through the servo tester. The tester will show a number and as you turn the dial the number will increase as we all know. The unit will go through her cycle, clam shell doors open gear extends, clam shells close. Now, when I reverse the tester by turning the knob back, the clamshells extend, the gear retracts, but the clamshells stay open and the tester shows solid 'black' squares (actually dark green, but you know what I mean). I ran this several times with the same result. I'm thinking the unit is faulty causing the tester to go 'wierd' so now I'm wondering if that were the case when it was plugged into the receiver. I didn't have any trouble until I extended the gear, then I couldn't do anything to keep her in the air.
    Anyone run across this before?
