Can't figure out what the issue is (esc keeps beeping in a sequence)

I have a Heewing T1 Ranger and have installed a Speedybee f405 wing Flight Controller, everything appears to be hooked up correctly, all other components power on and don't have any issues, but my esc's sound like they power up as expected, but then start beeping a sequence that I can't figure out what it means. Also, I don't have any servo control from my radio. I'm using a tx12 with ELRS and in the video I show that I have a link, but no control over the sticks.

I'm using iNav and have copied the settings from JustFPV directly from the FTCRC website, https://www.ftcrc.com/products/hee-wing-t1-ranger-pro-special-edition
the only real difference is I'm using iNav 7, and the settings DIFF file is for 6.1.1

Any help would be greatly appreciated and if more info is needed, please let me know.

A few screenshots from the INAV configurator would help us troubleshoot your problem.
1) screenshot of initial screen
2) screenshots of the configuration tab
3) screenshot of radio tab
4) screenshot of motors tab

Here are the screenshots, let me know if something is missing. I also forgot to update my HappyModel ELRS receiver, but after updating it to the same version as my transmitter, no change.

So the GPS wiring issue was the problem, my escs no longer beep, and I have FC servo control, just no stick control for servo or motors. I'm assuming I need to review the Receiver settings again.

All good here. I'm so used to wiring where it is a 1 to 1 connection, but I have corrected the GPS TX to RX FC and the same for the receiver and everything is working great. Thanks for the help!

I know I struggle with this problem too when soldering and wiring.

I've been working with serial devices for many decades. I am starting to get the hang of it. :-D Every now and again somebody comes out with a device that has the pins mislabled, or they think they are doing us a favor by swapping them, only to hose me.

Fortunately it doesn't let the smoke out like if you swap V+ and Gnd. LOL

Yeup the old Futaba servos had the + pin on the end of the three pin connector where every other servo maker used the center pin for +. Many an electronics got burned up by this if attention was not paid.
