Default Futaba Receiver Problem

I have the Futaba receiver R152je and a Futaba stock ECS. Has anyone heard of any compatiability problems with this setup?

Only compatibility probs I'm aware of are with the Futaba PCM based rcvrs.

If this is a new setup, you have tried calibratingthe tx and the esc?

As I am new to the hobby. (bought The Fox about twenty years ago) I am not too familiar with some of the terms you used. ESC= electronic speed control. TX ??? I have tried to program the ESC as per the directions that came with it. Everything is fine expect I cannot get the reverse to work.
