    Default swordfish 240hv esc

    So I have this esc all hooked up and ready to go, tried to calibrate the throttle and this is whats happing,pulled the trigger to full throttle as directed by the manual after hearing the 3 beeps, should have sounded 4 more beeps, but got nothing, when i released the trigger to the neutral postion the motor is at full throttle, when i pull the trigger to full throttle i get neutral,It hooked up to a neu 1527 1500kv motor, I using a the latest 2.4GHz Tx AND Rx from traxxas, I have tried adjusting end points and servo reverseing without any luck, anyone got any ideas???????

    Did you adjust the throttle trim or is that what you are calling the end points? I had a problem with the 120 doing the same thing and after I turned the throttle trim full clockwise and redid the throttle calibration it worked great for me.
