RE: After binding everything works except engine
Your ESC is not calibrated. Most just require unplugging the battery on your plane, raising throttle to full on the Tx and re-connecting the battery on speed controller. Please have a friend help and secure the plane just in case.
Once everything stops beeping, reduce the throttle to zero and you should be set. I usually unplug battery and turn off transmitter and restart everything at this point.
Should work after that.
