Ah I see where you're going wrong. Leave the sabretooth to one side. You've connected a positive to the RX but no negative for it to connect with. Use just a normal RC battery pack and leave the middle wire in your home made bind plug alone. You can use the sabretooth if you want, just plug one of the channel leads into another socket (the positive and negative are parallel so it doesn't matter where you plug it for this bit).

I'm still lost, I think I need a wiring diagram or something along those lines. So I connect the two outer wires of the plug to either end of a battery pack, then connect the plug to the Bind. Then I connect up my other plug which is connected to the sabretooth in another slot? I don't understand why the bind plug needs to be connected to a battery?
I'm guessing the bind is just a loop so the positive side comes from the sabretooth into the rx and then loops back round (through the bind plug?) and back into the sabretooth as the negative?
I'm sorry I'm being so pedantic about this but I don't want to end up destroying the receiver because I'm so stupid and confused.Last edited by Roland; 12 August 2013, 19:23.Comment

all you need to do in order is
plug in the bind plug (connecting top and bottom pin)
plug in the battery or power to the rx eg something like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Miniature-...item35c8343811 or an esc with built in bec
then pull the long toggle switch on the left of the transmitter and turn it on cant quite remember how long for tho
and it should bindComment

I had another go and for some reason it worked this time, still not sure why but thanks for the help!
I had the motors running briefly but all of a sudden they started juddering and stalling, all the warning lights on the RX and Servo went off and it just ground to halt, while the motors make an odd popping sound, I tried restarting it and whatnot but it's doing the same, just clicking away and the motors barely rotating.Comment
