How to read the PWM signals coming from this Remote Control ESC/Receiver

[faatma]

I want to end up controlling the ESC from the Arduino but first an just trying to read signals from the receiver.

The manual for the ESC is here: FLYSKY FS-R4A3-BS 2A-BS Protocol Three-in-One Receiver Instruction Manual

The normal wiring to run the RC car is like this:

To try with the Arduino I unplugged the clip from CH1 and wired the signal wire to pin 2 and the ground to GND and used the following code.

#define RCPin 2
int RCValue;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  pinMode(RCPin, INPUT);
}

void loop() {
  RCValue = pulseIn(RCPin, HIGH);
  Serial.println(RCValue);
}

When I now run the RC car, the code does nothing. No output from the serial monitor.

Did I miss something?

Please use pen and paper and show what the wiring is like.

@faatma

RCValue = pulseIn(RCPin, HIGH);

No pulses are coming.
