HELP!!! i bought. . . well, actually i got two Bit Char-g cars for chrismas: a Loctite GTR se and a Xanavi GTR se. i'm kinda interested in stuff like this so i opened it up to have a look. on like the 50th time I opened the circuit board cover, one of the copper wires fell off! the one labeled R... now the machine's steering refuses to center, and whenever charged wil turn one way or the other. I can do ok soldering but i don't know what to solder HELP!!! (please)

Oh yeah. . . *whacks himself on head*
just wondering though is it ok if u solder it to the top of the old soldered spot or do you have to scratch of the old soldering mark? and what happens if the solder joins?

Just try to use as little solder as possible...and be sure not to bridge any gaps with the blob. Cuz if you do, you might screw yourself.
