I double checked everything, and the ESC you sent me is working...
When the lipo is plug in, RX will initialize one "beep" servos, motor will move little... and don't have second stage initialization (2 beep).... sad.gif

the first initialize proven that, all servos and brushless is working...

ok .. after u plug in everything and put in the batt
u get only 1 beep and no 2nd beep ...
can u move the servos after that ?? or everything not working at all ??
if everything is not working ... then your tx did not bind with the heli rx
if servos moving but motor not running then most likely motor kong .. this one hard to say coz kong already oso it will beep ... but only will not run la .. hahahahaa


Added on February 9, 2010, 11:21 pmps .. and did u get a SOLID RED LIGHT at the rx ??
no solid red light = no bind

Ok.. here's something important to share with 4G6 owner....

NEVER SET YOUR SUB TRIM THROTTLE OVER 30%~~~ cool.gif whistling.gif

I just read from rc group, and found out that many people faced the same problem as me... regarding motor not turning....
CAUSE the sub trim is over 30% and the ESC will not initialize the motor as throttle is not low enough~!!!

After been through everything, i changed back the old ESC lower sub trim to 25%....... walla~~!!! I GOT 2nd initializing~!!!! sweat.gif doh.gif

4G6 is back in business now...!!! thumbup.gif thumbup.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Everything is working fine from the start... just that i set the sub trim to 50% so ESC refuse to initialize the motor...... silly me~

Me too lah, I have decided to go for 4G6 because it's cheaper to start with and as an add-on advantage, I can use the Tx for my next bigger heli IF I am still with this hobby.

Are you sure you're going to use walkera tx for bigger heli?

wanted to try and I read from a forum that this Tx is working quite well with some 300, 450 size heli ...... but yet to confirm before I get my hand on it tongue.gif

I am talking about WK2801 Pro woh ...... your 4G6 came with this Tx?

No doubt, the 2801 Tx work well with bigger size heli.... i'm unsure about "walkera" since they are not so much into RX,TX... but the RX is not easily obtained in Malaysia... isn't it? Just my 2 cents...

But 1 good thing about it.... so much more cheaper than any other brand~ notworthy.gif thumbup.gif

No doubt, the rx is similiar to SPECK/JR and so do the software.... it should be able to control any aircraft....

My own point of view... blush.gif cool2.gif
since the RX,TX is the key element of controlling the aircraft... it should be reliable.... crashing is expensive... Walkera is yet to prove their reliability in the radio industry......
But the good side, it is so much more cheaper for TX/RX... i saw the rx selling at USD 35 (ehirobo)....
Anyway getting Walkera TX/RX is like buying a FIxT/(Other not popular car in M'sia)... not so expensive but not common either... not easy to sell, less resources in troubleshooting...

I didn't say that the Tx is not good... but just it is yet to prove its reliability in the market... if we gonna use the TX in bigger heli... then really have to make a table and list out the pros and cons.... rclxub.gif

PS, if my 4G6 could be lighter/ cheaper, without Walkera TX,RX... i would use my JR... QiW, do you agree with me?
I can fly a cheapo heli... but i would make sure that the TX/RX is at least 90% reliable...
That makes me remind of the ESKY tx... damn drop once and all the signals gone mad like flies..... doh.gif going to throw it away before CNY to clear up space for my other RC stuffs...

being able to fly a 4G6 or 4G3 with spektrum would be really good
most important features of a radio would be the transmission reliability and programming

ESKY tx oso i got ... use for simulator only laa .. hahahahaa

I'm totally agree... but in the end... just fly what you can affort lo.... everything got pros and cons... so just judge it in your own criteria..
If i got Rm2k to buy a heli... i'll get a RM1300 RX +TX and a <RM700 heli... icon_rolleyes.gif
