swordfish esc question

[camarohrod]

i just received my new 200a swordfish esc and i put on all my 5.5 connectors and installed everything and then programed the esc. when i plug in my esc with the receiver connected it does its beeping thing, thats when the problem starts, i pull the trigger all the way back and i dont get anything but as soon as i push the trigger fully forward it starts working but it keeps runnign forward in the neutral position, is this a programing problem with my raido? i am using a traxxas tq2 2.4 radio and receiver.

Try again, my 120 took like 5 times till it worked right, been fine ever since

[camarohrod]

did it about 10 times and it is still the same, it dosent seem like a programing problem with the esc, i didnt change anything on the rx/tx from the old esc and i still cant seem to get the esc to recognise where the neutral position is on the radio.

I would try thr throttle calbration thing. Turn on transmitter ,pull trigger and hold, turn on rx wait for the 4 beep sequence,
let it go to neutral while the 4 beeps are going then your done.
You probably did it already...just thought I should mention it.

Good luck

Did you try reversing the Tx throttle?Seems I remember having to do that with the Traxxas.

Figured it out guys, it was a lack of reading the directions on the disk that was sent with the esc
