Hi,
I am here to seek some advices on how to re-use my AR636A and AR636B receivers. Long story short:
1. the AR636A receiver was left from a crashed HH Conscendo glider
2. the AR636B receiver was left from a crashed HH AeroScout trainer.
3. I also have a MotionRC Shrike glider, I put on a Admiral receiver on it. However, I don't really like my experience with this Shrike. Although all reviews I saw from MotionRC saying it easy to fly, I just feel the opposite. I actually crashed my first Shrike, with same Admiral receiver. I bought the second one, put on the Admiral again.
Note, the Shrike has a Skywalker ESC. Which is rated at 30A. However, from the Skywalker manual, which said this ESC can only support 4 servos with 3S Lipo. This is one point worth noting because the Shrike has 6 servos. But this point may not have anything to do why AR receiver not working on Shrike.
4. I want to put on either AR636A or AR636B to see if I can get the Shrike fly better.
5. hook up the AR receivers, both of them, thru Spektrum programming cable to my home PC. I saw the AR receivers from the software, I downloaded the SAFE profile from HH, and installed them on the AR receivers.
6. I put on AR receiver to Shrike. I plug the throttle wire to the channel 1 of AR receiver. Also put on the BIND plug. Insert battery. Pressing BIND button while turning on my DX6, the transmitter reported the bind was successful.
7. Then I unplug the battery, turn off transmitter, unplud BING plug. Now I insert battery again, the AR receiver just has NO any LED light. Turn on radio, the receiver has no any response. Push up throttle, motor is not running(I have checked the throttle cut switch too. I tried all possible positions).
I am not sure why the AR receiver cannot function at all. So I search thru the collection of parts left from past crashes. I put the AR receiver back to the same ESC from the HH Conscendo and AeroScount. To my surprise, it is not working either.
I measured the voltages from the throttle wire leading from ESC on three cases, they all appear same, about 3.27V. Is this throttle voltage supposed to be 5V? Seems my assumption is not valid. I cannot believe all three ESCs are bad.
It looks more like the AR receivers are not correctly handled by me, or they cannot be reuse at all? I have read all stuff I can find online, but I am lost now...
Thank you for your valuable inputs!
