Default Powerjive 120hv won't initialize using 6s
Just got a brand new powerjive. I'm using a single 6s pack on a agile 5.5 for now. Using a mini vbar and stock motor. No beeps or red lights when I plug in main battery.

The ESC needs to be programmed! When you pull the Jumper tones will be heard!

I need more info is the motor connected, Do you have a linear throttle curve in normal for programming and Th.Hold off? Please check the jumper to see that the metal contacts are present and plugged into the data port lined up with the arrows. Is the master cable plugged in correctly to the ESC and REC/FBL?

Yes to all your questions. I was wondering if just using one 6s 5000mah bat was my problem

A Jive can be programmed with a 6s battery! Do you have a different motor to test

I guess I got a bad esc out of the box. I've tried everything except to plug in 12s to it.
