Default futaba fp-r127df

I picked up this radio and receiver and want to know if it will work with my

Axial AE-1 esc? ? I'm not big with electronics. I tryed hooking it up but nothing worked.

Any help would be sweet. I got this radio and receiver cuz I wanted more channels. So I can run lights and mabby a winch (if that's possible)

No reason it wouldn't work.
Did you calibrate the ESC to the RX?
Did you try a servo in the throttle channel to test that it works?

OK got to match up got forward and reverse. But the steering servo must of have got messed up some how cuz evertime I turn power on the steering just cranks left all the way
and holds hard. I have to turn power off to get the steering servo to unlock. Did I fry something? Even with my factory axial radio and reciever it does the same thing ...

Fix the problem its was a bad connection in the servo . Yaahoooo! I got a 6 channel radio system! Don't know what I will use all the extra channels for any ideas? I have a toggle switch for my fifth channel I'm going to use for lights.
