General Brains Trust help needed!!

Just trying to figure out where all these wires go from ESC to receiver to 3Gx. To start with servo wires are coloured W R Bl, which colour goes to the top of Rc when plugging them in?Which one do you plug into on the Rc for sensitivity,(blue wire from 3gx). Forgot to say the rc is an AR8000. Also whats an S/Bus? Any help would be real good. They say your first times the hardest and they're right.Cheers Andy

This should help. Even though the Rx says Futaba, it will work the same for the AR8000. S-Bus is for Futaba only, not something you need to worry about ATM.

Thanks Tony, That is exactly what I was looking for.I wish they did this coloured diagram in the manuals. Cheers Andy.

yeah, it would make things MUCH easier.

If you are running a DX8 (the AR8000 is stock with the DX8), why not just use satellite Rx's?

Just plug it into 3gx? and not use the ar8000. I do have 2 sat rc'ers.

and yes I have the Dx8

Yup, All you have to do is plug the two satellite Rx's directly into the Sat ports on the 3GX, plug your bind plug directly into the bind port on the 3GX, and bind it as normal. Gets rid of a LOT of un-needed wires.
