Default RE: Cessna-182 4-ch RTF Airplane*New Build

Hey Guys, I just got my Ebay Plane,
Took no time to put together. I think what took the most time was putting the packing tape on everything.
I can attest that the shipment packing, it is just a box over the plane's box. But so far I can't tell if anything is damaged.

Ok, The instructions it came with are really for the 3 channel version. It came with a 72 Mhz reciever with 6 channels and 12 pins. Pins 2-4 were already used. Where do I plug the wings into? I am assuming Pin 1 right? as this is a 4 channel? Also I assume to follow the color scheme so all the cables are aligned the same way, seems white is at the top.

Anyways, here is my first real problem...

I heard somewhere that sometimes the battery comes charged so I plugged my battery in just to make sure it wasn't charged, well all the alearons starting moving and going crazy, is this normal? As soon as I turn on the Remote Control unit everything stops. But if I turn it off again, the tail starts going up and down and side to side like it is possessed.

Also when I try to work the controls on the reciever after I turn the plane and the reciever on nothing happen. The plane is one foot in front of me so I don't think it is a range issue. Seems like some circuits are backwords or I did not wire something right or could someone be flying another plane close by?(not likely but hey who knows)

Side note, I unplugged the wings out of the receiver and the problem still happens on the standard wiring. Is this normal?????

Where should I look for the solution?

I will include some pictures soon.




Thanks!
