esc is the stock super flyx esc, i don't know much about it other then it is rated for 20 amp. I looked in the owners manual but didn't find anything about programming the esc. Timing was my first thought. I tried putting the throttle stick to the full position and leaving it there until a little musical tone plays like a da da da daaa. Well that did happen but then nothing after that tone like a series of beeps or anything, once i moved the throttle stick back down the esc finished its arming sequence and that was it. I'm going to call the hobby shop and see if they can tell me anything about programming the esc, I'm not holding my breath though.
