Cab1 Discrepancy

It's not uncommon for the CC-M to lose it's mind and experience a runaway when the throttle is cracked.  The fix is reprogramming it.  I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the CAB1 except maybe weak batteries.

I have had a cab 1 where the throttle would lose its zero point and cause a runaway.

If I was lucky , it might slow down after a few spins of the wheel, sometimes not. The remote was brand new out of the box.

I'm not saying it's the o.p.'s issue, but a defective  handheld itself can indeed cause a runaway.

Would the CC-M “lose its mind” with only  Cab1, and not the other?

I have to say that's got to be a rare failure.  I've never seen or heard of it, and I've seen plenty of CC-M modules get confused and cause a runaway.

You stated you reprogrammed it with the new CAB1, that probably fixed the problem.  The easy test is, does it still misbehave with the original CAB1?

No reprogramming  of CC-M; same ID number used (02) for second Cab1. Didn’t think to switch back to 1st Cab1, and see if problem recurred.
