Default New 3in1

First I gotta say that Eflite has taken care of any problem that I have had with their products.
I received the new 3in1 that they sent me free of charge because of a problem I had with the last one.
The problem that I am having with this one is that when I plug the lipo into the 3in1,I get nothing, no green light no red light nothing,but the 3in1 gets hot.When I unplug the throttle lead,the light on the 3in1 flashes red green,and the 3in1 doesnt get hot

1. Is your radio on? ( just had to ask...)
2. Is the throttle stick all the way down?
3. Try swapping the motor leads around ( left motor for right motor ) or, do you have the pos /neg mixed up?

Light flashes with lipo plugged in

Radio is on, throttle,trim is all the way down,no motor leads plugged in.

Rx quit working I dont no why



Now and I dont know why, but the heli arms,red light turns to solid green,servos work everything is good untill I move the throttle up 1 or 2 clicks and the green light turns to flashing red untill the throttle is is lowered.

Wait... start over and list EVERYTHING that you saw and did in order and in detail. I think that we can help you, but there is too much conflicting information in this thread right now.

Compose your thoughts and try to be as detailed as possible.

Chances are, one of us will be able to help you quickly if we have enough info.

I received a new 3in1 from eflite today.I am using this 3in1 on my HBFP heli,with the DX6 tx and the Ar6000 rx.I installed the new 3in1 and hooked up the servo leads rudder lead and the throttle lead.First I turn on the tx and then plug in the lipo.The light on the 3in1 blinks red then to solid green.As soon as I start to move the throttle stick up,2 clicks the green light on the 3in1 starts to flash red.When I move the throttle down the red light turns green.
The throttlle trim,sub trim is all the was down.The lipos are In good condition,I charge and balence them on my cell pro charger/balancer.
Before the need for the new 3in1 ,this heli flew great.The only thing that was changed was the 3in1

Thanks fells

the red to solid green is wrong. It needs to flash green before it goes solid, thats when it is calibrating.

[ul][*] Have you configured any other throttle curve then linear on the TX? [*] What happens when you disconnect the motors after starting in all up and before powering on? [*] Do you have the self resetting fuses on your motor-leads? (Maybe these have popped and the 3in1 has nowhere to put its power too?)[*] Does everything rotate freely, iow is there any binding?[*] Have you rebound the Ar6000 to you DX6?[*] Have you reset the model in your TX? (Dunno that TX)[*] Sure the LiPo's are good? (When too little/low voltage is detected, it goes red immediately too.)
[/ul]

Just the kind of questions i'd ask myself and start from there . Like Bry said, go step by step, guide us through all it does and doesnt do.
