No throttle input from Tx.

Hi,
I've got everything working on my UAV; all hardware connected, software downloaded. When power is on, the LEDs tell me I've got a GPS fix, the power is on and I have control of elevator rudder and ailerons. When I flip the CH 5 switch, the MUX light goes on and the rudder shifts slightly. Everything works as expected except the motor! With manual control (Mux light out) I'll raise the throttle stick and nothing happens. Also, I don't hear the beep sequence I normally get when I first turn on my Jeti 40 Plus ESC.
Does anyone else have these issues?
Thanks,
Bryan

The above Manual mode throttle not functioning after reverted from Auto mode problem is disappeared after I replaced the receiver from Futaba PCM to a normal PPM receiver.
