Default spektrum + hobbywing problems

ok, so i have a losi 8ight-E with a hobbywing 80A esc and a spektrum DX3E radio.

i just got a secind reciever so i plug it into the car and im having trouble, neutral is full throttle, no steering. thats where it is now, before i still had no steering, and neutral was like 10% throttle.

i have tried to reset the esc throttle points to no avail. i feel like its worse now.

can anyone help put me on the right track to getting this setup working correctly?

You could bind the new RX with a different power source, then recalibrate the ESC.

If you are not getting any steering whatsoever, it looks like you first need to bind the receiver to the transmitter. Did you do that yet?

binding the receiver was the first thing I did.

i think im just going to take it into the lhs tomorrow and have them sort it out, they've helped me with it when i first got the car.

Default Receiver

I would check the order you have the servo and ecs wires plugged into the receiver. That's the only thing I can think of unless the speedo is bad.

doubt the speedo is bad since it was working perfectly before i swapped receivers.
