Man, that is strange. Maybe the 4pk boot up time is too long, and it is auto arming on the 4pk?


You could try booting up the 4pk RX with an external BEC first, then see if plugging in the FXR got you arming tones.

problem fixed it self, after i took it back apart and put it all back together without turning the radio off, unplugged the motor's and plugged em back in, it all works fine now!
i think maybe without the motor's plugged in the esc's were'nt reading or somethin!
anyway's we all good!

The FXR can't make noise without the motors. The motors are the speakers that actually make the sound.

Yup. Any time I have ever had a rig stop while driving the first thing I do is unplug and replug the battery to see if the motor chimes.
