I have no experience with that ESC, but have you calibrated it to the radio??

For the typical ESC, you need to turn the radio on and hold full throttle, then turn on the ESC. It will accept the throttle position. Then hit full reverse....it will accept that postion. Then leave the radio at neutral. It should then accept that position and be setup properly. Unplug and replug and you should be good to go.

Here is the User Manual for that ESC....it might be helpful:

Question

i tried that. the instruction didn't specify to do that just to plug in and turn on. it is supposed to programs itself. any other ideas
