Default Setup for Blade CPP & Futaba 6EXH

Hello all,

I have a Blade CP PRO that I want t o setup with a Futaba 6EXH TX and a R146IP RX. I hear that you can use the stock 3in1 speed control to save money. I'd rather wait to put money out for a brushless setup later. My problem is when I transfer over the stock RX wires to the Futaba R146IP RX, I get no response from the Futaba 6EHX once all is powered on. The 3in1 blinks red a few times and then goes out while my G90 gyro just blinks. The stock setup would have the 3in1 blink red a few times then go green while the G90 gyro lights solid once its locked in. Can someone please help me here on this setup. Also, does anyone know the programming setup on the Futaba 6EXH to start with that I wont have too much fumbling fine tuning?

Thanks and Merry Christmas to all!!!

i don't know anything about the rx you are using, but did you get the right wires in the right place? - aileron, elevator, throttle, rudder, pitch and gyro - there is a list of which plug is what on the eflite rx in the manual, and you should have a list of what goes where on your rx - since it isn't responding, i'd assume the plug positions are different on the different rx's, also check for signal wires being on the signal pins and not backwards plugged in, that can cause non-reponding too

that's about all i can do - somebody should come along in a minute with a futaba setup and help you with the specifics
