What to do if my FMS F-16C Fighting Falcon 70mm aircraft will not respond to the throttle?

  Sabrina CrawfordAug 14, 2025
  If your FMS Toy aircraft doesn't respond to the throttle but responds to other controls, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, the ESC might not be armed. To solve this, lower the throttle stick and throttle trim to the lowest settings. Another possibility is that the throttle channel is reversed. In this case, reverse the throttle channel on the transmitter.

Why is my FMS Toy motor power pulsing and then losing power?

  If the motor power pulses and then loses power in your FMS Toy, it could be due to a loss of power to the aircraft. If this happens, land the aircraft immediately and recharge the flight battery. Another cause might be that the ESC uses default soft Low Voltage Cutoff (LVC). In this case, check the connection from the ESC to the receiver.

  If you're experiencing reduced flight time or your FMS Toy aircraft feels underpowered, there are a couple of things to check.

  If a control surface on your FMS Toy does not move or is slow to respond to control inputs, it could be due to damage to the control surface, control horn, linkage, or servo. Replace or repair any damaged parts and adjust the controls. It could also be due to damaged wires or loose connections, so check all connections for loose wiring.
