Hi, hoping someone will be able to help me with a setup. I'm trying to set up a Kontronik Heli Jive 120 with a Spirit Gt (with DSMX sat and bind plug)however when I plug in the Jive master lead into Aux1 & slave into Aux2 (or Rud,Ch0 or remove ) the Spirit light comes on but the Jive will not initialize ( no red light or motor beebs)and of course unable to bind(Spektrum DX9) but if I plug in an old AR7000 everything works! Why or what am I doing wrong?
Tried different motors, DSMX sats and a Spirit Pro, with same results. The servos are not plugged in yet. I have set up other Spirit units
Any advice appreciated.
All solved now and set-up done.

you set the channel throttle in software spirt ?
general channel
when you move the throttle stick the green bar in GENERAL- channel must move
PS
what does master and slave cable mean?
the pin that sends the signal throttle is important what is the cable the send the signal throttle ?

Hi franz88, thanks for your reply
On Kontronik ESC they have a master (main) and slave (backup) power supply.

Spirit units come with the Throttle channel unassigned. You need to assign the Spirit throttle channel (generally to channel 1). While you are at the channel assignment menu, you may as well assign Banks to channel as well, usually to channel 7.
