Got it in the mail today, but I cannot get it to work.. It's all plugged in just like the other one was, and when I turn it all on the LED just flashes red.. I read through the instructions but thats not helping.. anyone have any ideas? Or if someone lives in the Gilbert area I'm more then willing to bring it to you lol

We need more info, and if that doesn't work for you try going to: Hobby Action 705 E Guadalupe Rd Tempe, AZ 85283 (sw corner of Rural & Guadalupe) They should be able to help as well. |

Have you calibrated it per the instructions? I haven't used a DX3, but I know the Rebel 2 can be picky about throttle postion. a trim pot or EPA being out of adjustment can cause it to not calibrate properly. |

Its simple thing to over looks, but with my slightly older JR radio, I always have trouble calibrating to the ESC when the batteries in the radio are low.

Yeah, thats the one ^^ I've tried and to the best of my knowledge I"m doing it per instructions.. I dunno. I'll try changing the batteries and such. I know nothing about setting the trim everything :( it's all set to 0 right now I believe.

Try reversing the throttle channel also, slowly adj. the throttle trim from min to max and watch for any change in the light on the ESC. |

try replacing the batteries in the transmiter also... And, make sure that you use high quality rechargables! |
