9918 programming troubles

Hello, i just hooked up all my brushless stuff, 9918, 9l and UBEC. all connections are correct (i checked over everything countless times)

I went to program the 9918 controller, and when i turn my remote on (JR XS3 radio), and plug in the batteries, there is some servo glitching, then that stops, then the motor beeps after 5 seconds. I then move the trigger to full power, and after 5 seconds, there is no beep, not after 10, or 20 seconds. i tried it several times, but it keeps doing the same thing. What is wrong with it???
