Default need help with esc, receiver

Hi, I have the new ESC and receiver for the ones I burned up. On the ESC, there are two leads that end in micro deans, a long one and a short one. Which one goes to the tail motor and which one geos to the battery? On the receiver when I tried hooking up the esc 3 wire lead to the 3rd channel from the top and the orange lead to the inside pin on the 4th channel, I get servo control, but no motor control for the main or tail. I have the short Deans lead connected to the tailmotor. Thanks, Doc

Doc,

You may have the leads backwards, on the 3in1 of the AXE CP the INPUT is on one side (Micro Deans to Battery), the other side has 2 18 ga wires for the main motor, the other pigtail with the Micro Deans connector is for the tail motor.
