Does the throttle servo move at all, or make any noise when using the transmitter trigger/stick? If not, then make sure you have a fully charged receiver pack; plug the steering servo into channel 2 (throttle) on the receiver. Take your transmitter trigger and move it. If your steering servo is moving while you are using the trigger/stick, your first (bad smelling) servo is more than likely shot. Plug your steering servo back into channel 1 and order a new servo for your throttle.

Sorry, that's the best I can do to understand your situation.
