Default RE: Throttle Problem

ORIGINAL: flyinsolo11

Hey guys here is a wierd one.

I switched Tx from the Esky one to the Eflite one I had because the Esky fried on me.

Ever since this the throttle is acting weird. When I increase the throttle, the swash goes down instead of up. To compensate for this, I naturally switched the throttle setting to reverse on the Tx. Now the ESC wont run the motor. When I turn it on, it goes BBB BBB BBB BBB instead of B B B.

I am hoping to get a Futaba 6EX soon, but untill then I want to get this thing back airborne. Any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

I'm not familiar with your radios, but...

If it was the swashplate that was moving in the wrong direction, why did you change the direction of the throttle?

Most likely the ESC is receiving a full throttle command now (since you reversed it) and will not arm. The beeping that you hear is most likely the ESC's way of telling you this. Did you read the manual?
