Can anyone tell me if I have to do anything before using these puppies!

I bound my receiver - I have steering but no nothing from the esc's ... no beeps no nothing!

HELP

I don't have a swordfish, but I do have the aquastar (same thing, different labels their both hifei esc's). I had to turn my throttle trim all the way down and calibrate my throttle range. To do that turn the tx on squeeze the trigger full forward and then plug in the esc (connect the batteries), 3 power up beeps will happen then you will hear 4beeps after the last beep set trigger to neutal and you will hear 2 more beeps. I had a hard time programming my esc until I found for my Tactic radio I needed the throttle trim full clockwise prior to calibrating and arming. Hopefully this helps.

Sweet, good luck. Tighen up those water ports for cooling, some leak from the factory. I also coated mine to better waterproof.
