Steering but no motor
Mp9e with hobbywing sct pro esc and tekin t8 1900kv motor, got an airtronics mt4s radio/receiver for it. Did the bind and have steering but no motor. Tried the hobbywing setup program for neutral/fullthrottle/brake but it wont accept input. Hold button down and turn power on, wait for esc to start blinking and let go of button, now esc should be ready to accept input for neutral/full throttle/ full brake but it kinda just goes dead and nothing happens when I try to set it up, just dead. So I try to just power it up normal for normal driving operation and when I do it blinks green a few times then just blinks red constant, I have steering but no throttle responce, any help?

If everything is good and you are still having issues, swap the speedo and servo positions in the RX and see if you can move the servo with the trigger. That will rule out the RX being bad...

Ok I switched positions with servo and esc in receiver, now I can throttle the motor thru the steering wheel but no steering thru the trigger. Steering one direction drives forward, sterring the other direction reverses the motor. As opposed to steering one direction drives forward and steering the other direction applies brake.

My receiver is 4 channel, I have the steering servo in channel 1 and the esc is in the battery spot. There are 4 channel spots and 1 battery spot.

Dufus update...I watched a utube vid that said esc goes in "batt" position so thats where I had it. Then the manual said it goes in channel 2, switched it to channel 2 and it worked in reverse, so I reversed the program in the radio and now it works....thanks for all the help guys! Without this site I would be selling a buggy
