    Talon Retract Issue

    Having issues with one of my Talons retracting. Goes down ok but won't retract unless I do it manually. Anybody got a fix for this?

    it uses relays in the control board to reverse the motor. Try pulling the motor cover off, locate the motor and you'll see two leads. With it laid down where it can deploy / retract, deploy it, then reverse the leads and it should retract by pushing the deploy sequence. Then try to deploy by pushing the stow. I'm guessing it's a control board gone bad. However, if it still will not stow and seems mechanical, then it could be the gibs or something on the extrusion keeping if from stowing.
