Have you bound the receiver to the transmitter? That would be the first step.

Don't think so, how do you go about doing that.
When i bought it from AMAINHOBBIES I didnt get jack but
the 2 receivers and the radio with some aa nimh batteries rechargeable.
I got a USB cord with it but have a clue what thats for either.


Ps. this is my first attempt at using a radio that didnt come with a car like a RTR so have no clue on what im doing.

Here is the manual:

You will need to read about the Bind procedure on page 9 of their manual.

Read that manual and On page 9 just shows how it all hooks up no binding process. I have it hooked up just like it says. once i get it hooked up what do i do from there?
I have the bind plug also but manual doesnt say anything about binding in it that i can find.

1-Plug goes in channel 3
2-Turn on receiver(hook up a battery)
3- While holding the bind button on the radio power it on.
4-Blinking stops
5-Remove bind plug
6- Go drive

Put binding plug into the bind/battery port, turn on esc. Rx's should be flashing. Then while turning on radio hold "bnd" button. RX light should go on steady. Now you are bound. Turn everything off. Remove binding plug. You should be ready to use now.

Ah see i wasnt holding the binding button before turning on just pushed it once had on.

Tried it but still aint got it working yet. Checking manaul to make sure i got the esc/servo plugged into the right channels and bind plug goes into channel 3/bind correct
Is the 4th plug used for anything?

Should the Rx beep or do anything once i hold bind button and power on?
Once i do that do i then remove the bind plug?

Going back out to garage to see if can get working will check back soon, thanks for all yalls
help and for not flaming me for not knowing this $hit

Went and tried it and still no responce fron anything. Heres what i tried.
let me know if different PLEASE im stressin this thing is BRAND NEW.

Had the Servo plug into channel 1
Had the Esc plugged into channel 2
had the bind plug Plugged into channel 3/bind
Had the 4th plug empty Says Vcc plug on it I think.

I then Plugged the battery into the esc via a deans plug
switched the on switch to on and powered up.
The rx comes on and lights up

I hold the Bind Button on the Tx then Power the Tx on.
The Tx beeps once (does it all time i think).

Thats the process I tried.

You should be able to bind/match WITHOUT any servos plugged into the RX.
