    Hi guy's I'm new to the tank world and to the forum! I'm using a taigen tiger 1 with a clark tk 50 board and a flysky i6s transmitter.
    I've had my clark tk 50 board replacement yesterday I seen it working in another tank, put it in my tiger 1 and nothings working again! This is really getting to be a pain now! my receiver is getting power from the board and a signal from the transmitter, servos work in all channels on the receiver but doesn't work on the boards servo port nothing else works at all! So I can only think that my transmitter has a problem with the sbus functionality, I know without doubt that it's set up properly and I have checked and checked, I've factory reset the transmitter I've done so many rebind's I've lost count! So until I get my new transmitter at the end of the week I'm stumped! The transmitter I have is second hand so I've taken the chance and spent out on a new one! Any suggestions from you guys? It's driving me nuts 😁​

    Have you read the instructions on the the Clark site? If I recall Clark boards don’t do anything until you do the ninja stick maneuvers to start the engine up.

        Stupid question but did you bind the receiver and transmitter to start with?

            I guess start by showing where and how everything is hooked up with detailed pictures and go from there

                It might be best to share the whole story as you tell it and all the help that's already been suggested.
                So you are in the UK and you supposedly went to Haya in person? On Sunday/Yesterday? Here's my Dumb question, with the issues you've already been having Why didnt you have them install the 2nd board and test it with Your TX?
                Here's your post from the other forum with the rest of your story which may help those here inclined to help you-

                  So the transmitter works with the receiver, but once you connect the Clark board nothing works on the Clark board? Just trying to get a clear idea of your issue

                    Yes that's right, i know it's receiving power, led's plugged in to the board lights up but servo doesn't work off it!

                      Mr chef yes I'm in the UK and I did go to the haya premises we did install the board and we got the same problem and the guy didn't know what to do about it so I left guessing it was my transmitter that was the problem it seems my transmitter went bad at the same time as I was doing the factory reset on the clark tk 50

                        I've had a 9 Channel FlySky transmitter go bad on me as well. I don't run my RC tanks often enough due to no RC Tank group near me, and no one whose interested to run with I know. I swapped the receiver in the tank in question with an extra receiver from a 6 channel FlySky transmitter. and all the tanks functions operated properly. So yes, anything electronic can and will fail.

                          Still you should post pictures and show the wiring and everything, otherwise we're just blind guessing and taking your word on it that everyone is done correctly and in my experience of every customer service type job, that's not always the case :P

                            Yeah same here with me no one around me or any clubs, I'm hoping to get the new transmitter by the end of the week so I'll have to go from there! I've got a problem with the recoil working with the clark tk 50 board I put in a 360 degree turret ring and that made the muzzle flash work but not the recoil, so still need a solution to that issue if anyone has any idea! Thanks for the replies
