Problems with my Mamba Maxx ESC?

[notnodak]

I just plugged everything in and went to clibrate but when I turned it on at the swith I hear the 4-5 beeps from high to low and all the lights just blink. I have no steering or throttle.
Is it bad or am I doing something wrong?

It was just the ESC plug

Yeah, plugging it backwards won't harm anything, it just won't work. Since the red wire is in the middle, with the ground and signal wire on either end, reversing it simply makes the signal wire the ground and it won't work. Pretty smart of whoever made these plugs IMO.

OK, that's the wire who goes to the Rx, i'am thinking about the main batt lead
