The plane's receiver was set to 'on' when it arrived, I'm thinking the battery is probably dead,





uh yea i think its safe to say the rx battery is dead! as for plugging in the connectors wrong, im not too sure. still new to the hobby too! but ive never seen exclusive warnings not to, but i could be wrong. (most mfrs write out their warnings and discretions as if they sold the product to 4 year olds- but i cant blame em!) im sure someone else can relate for ya!
