The problem you are describing could be caused by foam in the antenna connector, but also sounds a bit like a software caused error on the Rx, that is not sending back any data
Which setup do you have? Dual motor? Did you make any changes in the code?
Mono motor on a towboogie. No changes in code other than the configs/setup.
The E4 is shown most of the time. On startup it takes a while for it to connect, about 5-10 seconds, but it always connects. Ive had wipeouts where the throttle is unresponsive after but after powercycling 1-2 times it connects and I can continue.
Is there anything you know I can try to verify/debug if its a software issue?
You can try to configure the Rx to servo steering output. Donât connect anything to the servo output and continue to use the SRV output for your motor. Or do you already have a servo?
No no servo! I have no steering
Ok, then please configure the Rx to Servo steering and check if that helps
Ok thanks will try. But to clarify I should try adding a resistor just the same as I would use a servo? Like the wiring diagram on GitHub?
Or only in software?
Only in software, no changes to hardware needed

Will try and report back thanks for you help 
Is there a DIY friendly way on this or the V2 pcb to connect a different trigger signal?
A generic 0-5v or 0-3.3v signal for example.
You would need to desolder the hall encoder (the âlonelyâ component on the top end of the coffin shaped PCB. There you can attach a 0-3.3V signal
Yeah, I do not think so.
With my soldering skills, that is pretty unlikely to succeed.
If I find some time, I might get a HT-CT62 development board and try it that way.
Thank you for the quick help.
Tried changing rx config to enable servo but no difference. Had a session today, Continuous E4 but have connection throughout the whole ride. Foil battery has never been shown so maybe something with the telemetry connections, Will have a look tomorrow and see if cables are bad or solder joints.
Any other ideas I can try?
The behavior you describe means that the remote sends data to the Rx but does not get any data back
This sounds like a problem with one of the radio modules or their antenna. So most likely is foam inside the TX connector after all
This is the unlocked symbol
If this does not disappear automatically the toggle or trigger are mis-calibrated, please calibrate again
Have a new issue that I havenât found any reference too here on the forum.
Rode my tow boogie yesterday and parked at a beach for 20 or so minutes.
Attempted to turn on the bremote which it did but displayed only a 7 symbol in the first (left) slot of the display that wouldnât go away. Couldnât turn off the remote and it wasnât functioning so paddled back to launch point.
Came home and connected the remote to my computer and reuploaded the calibration to see if the remote responded which it did.
But it wonât turn on now, I can connect to it with the usb cable but thatâs it. No signs of life when doing the startup.
Tried both changing the throttle+toggle to startup to just toggle and nothing.
Before I start opening it up to check inside is there anyone that has any ideas on what I can do since I can connect and upload stuff to it maybe I can do something with software to verify what is wrong with it?
Can you share the output of the calibration please?
Also, can you try uploading the code from here:
Source/MFG_Specific/TxTest/BREmote_Tx_V1-1_ShippingDemo
And report what the remote does? What do the displays show when you move the toggle and throttle?
You may also try to push on the display a bit in case there is a bad contact somewhere

I tried powering it on without any screen life multiple times when the rx/boogie was powered on to see if it ran but just screen dead.
Feel like something could have happened to the battery? But can the remote power on when connected to USB in case the battery somehow shorted out?
So even with the shipping demo nothing on the display? Also after pushing the display a bit?
The battery is finde from what I can see in your data
The shipping demo stops after the â30â output?
Can you also upload the normal firmware again and show the output after uploading?
