Top right corner - user tools, messaging.
Then put Garry Pollard in the 'to' box - and your message in the box underneath.
Don't forget to 'send' it!

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!
Thanks: The Beard

Stephen, have you tried rebinding the RX to the TX. I cant understand this as it worked perfectly on Spekky, as I demonstrated at Langar and it worked at your home, it MUST be a bind issue

You have the the throttle trim set to minimum as well?. Some ESC (I have one!) need absolute minimum throttle stick condition to work.

Could this be the "reverse throttle" issue with Futaba?

I use Futaba, and have always left the (for electrics) throttle trim centred.
I've always had to reverse the throttle, to get a speedo to work in the correct sense, but have never had the problems of losing bind - once in - it STAYS in!
Just bear in mind that most speedos - if the throttle is more than half open, go to setup mode, so if you plug in the lipo with the throttle open, you will simply be resetting everything. You need to know the beep-codes, (in the handbook for the speedo) to get it right.
If you get the long beep, then a number of short beeps, then you close the throttle, you have reset whatever that beep-code meant!
To reset it all, you have to unplug the lipo, and start again, unless you have a programming card that suits the speedo.
.
Take your time, and read the :evil: instructions FIRST!

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!
