Are standard receivers compatible with ESC?
I am new to electrics, and have made a scratch built foamie. I was going to use my Futaba 168DF receiver, but when I plug the BEC into the channel 3, throttle plug in the rx, it's not powering anything up.
I can test the servos by plugging in a 4.8v battery into the rx, but when I disconnect it and try to power the rx off of the BEC, nothing is happening. Are the standard receivers only able to power up off of the battery port?
