Ok, I just received the RC equipment yesterday. Here's some photos.
Some things I noted:
-The battery plugs into the white port on the ESC, the motor(not shown) plugs into the red/black pin connectors on the ESC
-The ESC plugs into Ch3
-There are holes marked for Ch1-4 at the center of the board, but only Ch3 has pins soldered in place (the rest are filled with solder)
-The servos aren't the standard RC plane ones I've seen, they have 5 wires and plug into the white ports
I will be using a 3-pin type 9 gram servo so I need to find a way to hook it up to one of the other channels. I will be going to a electronics lab at my school to do some testing with an oscilloscope.
