Default Park Zone Radian & Futaba 6EX-2.4

I'm having trouble getting the elec. Motor to run in my brand new Radian, Elev. and Rudder respond as desired. I reset all functions in the Transmitter to Factory defaults, i.e. started off with no programming left in the Radio. I turn on the Transmitter, then plug in the ESC, it beeps several times but will not run. It ran when I first started experimenting with it, but continued to run even after the Transmitter was turned off, so I unplugged the Connection at the ESC and started to find out was was wrong. Everything seems to be plugged in ok, the receiver and voltages are fine, but why cant I get the motor to respond like I need too. Any Help is appreciated.

is it possible that your throttle is "reversed" on that channel, so when the esc gets power its safety feature prevents the motor from coming on at full throttle. Check the programming on the esc to see if there is another reason (number of cells programmed incorrectly, etc)

yes, the throttle was definitely reversed, found out very quickly. Will now try to program the ESC.
