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.
