I'm working on a simple cub model from FT. I ordered the full power pack, and a new spektrum transmitter and receiver, so it's all parts that should work together smoothly.
I've been trying to get the radio to work, and I can't get anything to work on channel one.
It came from FT with the receiver bound to the transmitter. I wired it all together, with the ESC in channel one. Servos in the other channels work correctly, but nothing happens with the throttle. The ESC and motor aren't doing any signal beeps - they're just dead.
If I plug the ESC into a different channel, then ESC and motor start up, and I can control the motor on that channel - so the ESC and the motor are working - just not in channel 1.
If I plug a servo into channel one, it doesn't work.
I've tried literally every possible setting of the switches on the controller, just in case the throttle disarm was on a different switch. (I set up a chart to make sure I covered all possibilities - tested all 32 combinations.)
Is there something special I need to with the the spektrum transmitter or receiver to activate the throttle?
