start up stuck......

RE: start up stuck......
Matt, Tonight I got some time to try a few things.
1st. I turned on the jet receiver battery and the turbine starter motor engaged. spun up to high rpm's. NOtransmitter
2nd, this time I turned the transmitter on, then the rx, still the starter motoer engaged and went to high rpm.
3rd, then I replaced the ECU with another one I had, and the same thing happened all over again.
so in the end, it does not matter if the transmitter is on or off, or whicg ECU I use. but as soon as I turn the receiver on, the turbine goes right to high idle..........
any ideas?

ok guys, thanks for the help, but we are up and running.
I called Jetcat today. Spoke with someone and he told me it was either my ECU or the board in the turbine. Already thinking that I came home tonight and checked a few more things.
I turned on the receiver and sure enough the same problem. SO.....
I took out the borrowed ECU and re-installed mine. Then for some reason I unpluged and re-plugged all the connections. Did this a few times thinking maybe, just maybe it was a dirty connection.
Well, it worked, everything was back to normal and it started right up. so I guess from sitting a few months in my shop, I had a poor connection.
Again, thanks for the help....
