GT3C programming question

[Inspector86]

I need help setting up my GT3C with a new air boat model using a 3 channel RX and a non-reversing ESC. The ESC is a 30A brushless HobbyKing. The throttle is currently working as follows. At the full throttle position, the motor stops. In the neutral throttle position, the motor runs at 50% forward. At the reverse throttle position, the motor runs at 100% forward. Programming this in the GT3C has me confused and any help from someone familiar with a hacked GT3C would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like more of a ESC programming or setup issue than the transmitter. Unless you need to redo the initial hack startup calibration.

Sounds like you need to set the endpoints on channel 2 and reverse the throttle settings

After thinking about it I think you guys are correct. I know that channel 2 needs to be reversed but now I need to find out how to calibrate the ESC.

Problem solved! I reversed the throttle channel and then found a youtube video which explained how to calibrate the HobbyKing ESC. Works normally now.
