Default VS4-10 Phoenix RTR overdrive servo (CH3) issue

Hello everyone. Quick question for those familiar with the VS4-10 rtr radio. My son picked up a VS4-10 RTR last weekend and today his servo for the overdrive arrived. After connecting it to CH3 before actually installing it, we turn it on, and press CH3. Nothing. No sound or movement from the servo. I then disconnect it from his car connect it to my Phoenix portal w/ the FS GT5 and servo works. Am I missing a step here? Is there something else I need to do to his radio prior to using CH3 or 4? FYI, his is box stock other than the Fusion SE immediately installed prior to initial run. Thanks in advance

I’m not familiar with that radio, but I can only assume that you need to adjust the end points for channel 3. If there is a manual for the radio, I would check that. If not, a quick search on YouTube might be helpful.

Also, just to be sure, you removed the lockout screw for the o/d lever, correct?

I didn't even connect the links. I just connected it to CH3 to test the servo. I just checked the box settings on the radio and CH3 endpoint is at 100%

quick albeit late update here. I emailed Vanquish regarding this issue and they shipped a new one within 3 days. Thank you Michael Pham from VP Customer Care
