Default BR-xl not powering motor

I have a brand new holmes esc and its not sending power to my motor. I have a used one also that works fine and I tried the motor wires from it to ensure it wasnt my wires and still nothing...any ideas? I have it in the 2nd channel on my 4pk rx but tried it in the 3rd with nothing either.

are you getting the green light on the ESC when you give it throttle? Using lipoly?

Sounds like the controller isn't arming. Have you set up your throttle endpoints? Adjusted neutral trim on the radio?

This is in a dual setup, I have both esc's set the same, the one arms fine.
