This Falcon suffered from various issues, one of which was"bang it on the top to make the sound come back-itis". In this vid, we'll do a complete service on it - change the nasty power cord, remove death cap, change all electrolytics, and modify the circuit by removing the faulty Sprague "tone-sucking network" couplet. By the end, we'll take this Falcon for a test flight with Tele.
