e-Century Hummingbird - Swift > Humming Bird HELP!!!!!

Ok I recieved my "Bird" and as far as I know I followed all the directions properely. I did all the wireing from my JR Quattro servo's and also wired my moters to the Hummingboard. I turned on my radio and the gyro has a green light and the Hummingboard starts flashing then turns green. I go to run up the motors and nothing happens. Neither the main or the Tail motor are turning. I'm probably being really stupid and missed somthing easy but I need help with this. Thanks.

Also when I move my elevator servo for left to right movment the blades or paddles do not move like the aileron servo moves the blades and paddles for forward and back movement. ARGGGGGGG

Scott - Maybe I just don't understand but, the elevator servo (channel two) should cause the swashplate to tip forward and back and the aileron servo (channel one) should tilt the swashplate from side to side to bank the heli. Sound like you have the two reversed.

Scott,
My guess, the motors are not turning....flip the wire from the gyro to the mixing board top to bottom. Also on the Quatro you have to reverse the tail channel. This should get you humming along. If you have any other questions please feel free to give me a call. No others have mentioned this info before and some may question why I give this advice.....please post a followup and let them know it worked.
regards,
Anthony
