cant arm

[amoran15]

i have the xp3a just put it together and got everything set up.. im in gov tx mode i turn my transmitter on 0 throttle plug in the battery to heli and i get 3 beeps i wait for 3n1 to arm then as soon as i move my throttle stick even a click it beeps i never make it to half throttle. then after that if i lower it to 0 throttle it just beeps over and over and dosent stop.

what could be wrong?

Try a all flat tc 65-65-65-65-65 and use the throttle hold to do the arming and not your stick.

You should get the 3 ascending beeps when you plug it in, once the 3n1 powers the servos will start to jitter, turning throttle hold off with be a solid low beep, turn it on and it will be a solid high beep then turn it off and it will start to spool up.

i soldered my signal wire to the left motor fet leg like in the pictures. i can sometimes get it to arm if i move the throttle to full then lower it sometimes it will work but my throttle is reversed when this happens... is it possible i have the signal wire in the wrong spot>

If your blades turn the wrong way its possible you have your motor wires reversed. If you had a toolstick you could reverse the direction in the software but you will need to swap two wires to make it the right direction if not.

I would try arming it the way I mentioned and see if it will stay powered up. You have a photo of the install?

I'm sorry, but the way you brought it up, I just had to laugh out loud! I can picture it too (not that I have any frame of reference in my own humble experience)!
