Question SC Models Edge 540 Profile Foamy

Hi Guys,
Late aussie night here and spent it having no idea what I am doing trying to get my gear to work. I have an Edge 540 profile foam model, that is all built, I have a Motrolfly DM2210 KV1700 Brushless Outrunner motor to use, Loong-Max 1000mah 3 Cell 11.1 V Lipo, 3 Tower Pro 9 Gram Servo's, Turborix 20A speedy, and Corona RP4S1 RX and a Sanwa VG 6000 TX. Will all that work together and further to that, what the hell do I do!?? (I've got no clue!).
I plug the battery, esc, motor and rx together after I have my Sanwa turned on, get a red light on the RX for a few seconds, it then goes off unless I press it. I have no idea what servo's go on which channel on the RX and not sure how the hell do get the RX and TX talking, the directions for the RP4S1 and 20A speedy are double dutch to me, any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.

Default Are you still after help

Hey mate,
I hear that you were in a little trouble with your planemotor and setup. THese planes are great. I personaly have one and they are really good especially with that motor that you have. Do you still needhelp setting it up. Personally i find the guys at SC Model realy helpful and have set up a number of my planes for me. If you are still having problems just askthe SC guysand they will definately help and they aregenerally really fastat getting back to you. You are on the right track anyway.You just have to hold down the button on the receiver untill it flashes really fast then et goand the receiver will lock on to the rx channel. If you are still having problems just let me know ill help you.

Cheers

yeah im interchanging between a 1000mah 11.1V 25C also and a SC power 1300mah 11.1V 25C and 2C charge rate. The weight difference is only 13 grams so not much difference and it give a much longer flight time and also recharges in 30 minutes i hate having to wait 1 hour to have another fly haha.
