| My mongoose wont run!!
I put on a new RX tonight and my goose ain't running!! Here is what I know. I had everything running great. Narrowed my chassis a bit, put in a new rx, and shortened the cables a bit on my servo and also my bec. Bound it up. Set the throttle points. Went to crawl a bit and sure enough if I got a hesitant twitch from the motor and then nothing. The ESC is showing to have the blue and amber solid I pull the throttle and the red goes crazy blinking and the green light comes on. I also changed my battery too and got the same thing.

Why did you put in a new receiver?

| To go smaller.
I put in the new reciever to go smaller and narrower. I used the older rx this morning and the same thing is happening.

After rereading the set up guide it sounds like you may need to reprogram your esc.

| It was reprogrammed
I had reprogrammed it twice. After looking closely at the black wire connection to the esc I noticed that some of the connections in the mail plastic clip had slightly come out. I took a super small screw driver and pushed the copper conection down in and it took care of it immediately. Hard to see with bad light!
