If you can, try hooking up a 4.8v battery pack straight to the reciever. That way, you should be able to power-up and test your servos etc. If they still don't work, then you have a problem with your receiver.
If the servos work fine this way, but your ESC just beeps at you when you hook a battery up to it, either you need to place your throttle stick at zero throttle, or your ESC is toast.
Is it an Align ESC?

I've heard of that happening to several people on this forum with Align 35A ESCs. Also try using a totally fresh profile on your radio, so that your throttle curve is completely linear.......I've seen these ESCs give people trouble when they're trying to use a non-standard throttle curve.....the ESC doesn't know where low-throttle is.
