I think the  rc gods hate me ,as per previos post the foamy crashed ,no problemb I own superglue , I also own a katana s  ;My big idea was to put a rx in the Katana and go flying , put a 6210 in the katana bound it  programed it ,all is good except the motor wont start ,put a new motor ,still wont start ,must be a bad esc  put a used esc in it ,imediatly filled my house with smoke .I would assume it is junk seeing as I let the smoke out tried a new esc ,nothing ,hooked the whole mess up to the ar600 that crashed the sniper and walah the motor runs ,I dont trust the ar600 {crash dummy} sso we investigate the 6210 hooked a 4.8v rx batt to it with a futaba servo in the throttle slot ,works fine  ,but wiil not operate with a esc in the throttle slot ,all other servos work fine  In my mind if the rx works ad it will work with a servo it has no reason not to work with an esc right???????  I dont get it!!!! GOtta be some kind of voodoo curse  .  What do I need ?, chicken leg , spider venom , snake hair ,repent for my sins what????  I just want to fly .

 This my issue with the esc plugged in I have rx power ie. ale ,rudd elev works fine but the motor wiil not run with this rx  ,throttle works with a regular servo but will not work with an esc  ; if the esc makes th rx power up and the rx makes a throttle servo work the rx should work with a esc I think???? Is there something there I'm not understanding??  I would think te esc is just supplying power through the throttle ch and the rest is kinda a rheosttat kinda thing I would assume?
