Step by step man, receiver, servo, bind, servo moves you can progress to the next thing.

Yeah originally servo bricked the second time with the esc so i replaced both. Maybe i just don't. Know how to calibrate the esc to get it to pair

The ESC does not pair with the radio, it has to be calibrated how the instructions specify. The receiver needs to be paired with the transmitter, this is why the very first test is does the servo move, that tells you if you have the receiver paired with the transmitter. I don't know which one you have but normally they is a little light on most of these surface receivers that tell you the status of pair/nopair with a green/flashing red or red respectively.

Search youtube for a how to on your brand of transmitter/receiver for pairing instructions, get that servo working first ALWAYS while you are testing stuff.

I agree, for the time being try to cut the ESC from the mix. Get a holder for 4 AA batteries, hook it up to the receiver, DO NOT connect the ESC, plug in the servo and try if it works. If it doesn't, there's a problem with binding the transmitter to the receiver OR the servo's faulty.

And remember; black servo wire to the outside of the receiver, and channel 1 for steering.

THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR HELP! It turns out the new receiver/transmitter i got was a broken one after ordering a new one and returning that it worked again!
