Most electronics issues are solved with one of these checks.<ol><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">Power. Use new batteries, or fully charge the rechargeable battery box with its USB cable before first use. Check the battery orientation and that the battery box is switched on.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">Pairing. Many receivers need to be paired with the remote before they respond. Switch on the battery box first, then the remote, and follow the pairing steps on the electronics page of your manual.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">Cables. Push every connector fully into its port, the right way round. Check that no cable is pinched between bricks.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">One motor at a time. Connect a single motor directly to the battery box to find out whether the motor, the cable or the receiver is the problem.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">Interference. Keep other remote-controlled sets switched off while pairing. Two remotes can interfere with each other.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">App control. If your set uses an app, install the one named in your manual and turn on Bluetooth on your phone.</li><li style="text-align: justify; font-size: 16px;">USB lights. USB light kits need a USB power source, such as a phone charger or a power bank.</li></ol><h4 style="text-align: justify;" id> </h4><h2 id="still-not-working">Still not working?</h2>Email <a href="mailto:info@24builds.com">info@24builds.com</a> with your order number, a short video showing the problem, and a photo of the battery box, receiver and cables.

A few habits make the build smoother and save time hunting for pieces. Our sets contain small parts. Check the recommended age on the product page before building with younger builders.

A few habits make the build smoother and save time hunting for pieces.<ul><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Open one numbered bag at a time. Bags follow the order of the manual, so you only need the pieces for the section you&apos;re on.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Build on a tray or a light-coloured surface so small pieces don&apos;t roll away and are easy to see.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Sort pieces by colour and size before each bag. A few small containers help.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Keep the spare parts. Extra small pieces are included in most sets, in case one goes missing.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Don&apos;t force pieces. If a connection feels too tight, check the manual: a piece may be in the wrong position or orientation.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Test motorised functions as you go. Check gears and motors at the steps the manual shows, before they&apos;re covered by bodywork.</li><li style="font-size: 16px; text-align: justify;">Keep your manual and order email until the build is finished. You&apos;ll need them if you contact us about a piece.</li></ul>Our sets contain small parts. Check the recommended age on the product page before building with younger builders.
