I thought you hold full throttle then switch on to get into programming mode,that's what the instructions say anyway.
Yes you want the motor connected to the controller,any order will do,if it turns the wrong way just swap over any two wires.
I think that is what he did for a full minute. I think what he is saying is after that didn't work he tried it the other way that he mentioned.
Oh,i see,sorry.Well then the next thing to do is check radio,esc may not be seeing full throttle.Check channel is not reversed,EPA is 100% and trim is at zero. Hopefully it's not a fault with the esc where it can't be programed.
so i'm an idiot, the tx throttle was back wards! wow i feel like a jack@ss! havent programmed it yet but i ran it as is and it flies in reverse but not in forward??? i'll get back to ya thanks
