Default Blade CP HELP!!!!

I have an older Blade CP that I can not get flying. I have a 3-n-1 mixer, 6100e bound to a DX7. The servos work fine, but the motors will not! The LED on the 3-n-1 flash red/green the entire time. Any suggestions on what is going on with this *&^@ thing?

In the manual it says if that happens there isn't a connection between the receiver and the 3in1. Where did you plug the throttle and rudder connectors from the 3in1 to the receiver?

I put the Throttle plug in the THRO and the rudder in the RUDD. The servos all work correctly as well

turn your throttle trim down so that the ESC can arm.

I have the throttle back and trim all the way down, would I have to adjust the sub trim and/or the throttle settings in the DX7?

I do not have any subtrim on throttle. My throttle hold is set to -10.

I would try to arm with no throttle trim and then slowly decrease trim (down) till it arms. Mine is trimmed about half way down.
