CleanFlight and Turnigy9x V2(Almost works)

So, everything on my quadcopter works. The motors spin on clean flight, the receiver acknowledges Yaw, Roll, Pitch, Throttle, and Aux2. Except for some reason, only the AUX2 renders. Not Aux1. I don't know how to change that. Also, when moving the throttle up and down, the motors don't budge. I'm completely lost on how to make motors move with this transmitter(Turnigy9x V2). And for some reason when I try to attach my other transmitter to to Turnigy9x receiver, I don't see any response(It was bound). Do the transmitter and receiver have to be the same model? I know on my HK-T6A V2 if I held down the left joystick and push it to the right for 4 seconds. It will activate the motors. Is there a trick like that with the Turnigy9x? Totally lost here. I can't seem to find anything on google/youtube. Thank you again community!
 
Are you using the Aux2 for the "arm" mode set up in cleanflight? I used the settings in my Tx to configure what switches are used. A 2-way to arm the motors, and a 3-way for the fight modes. Using a Flysky combo, so I'm not sure how they differ as this was just my first go.
 
I have it armed like this. I'm not sure how to connect to AUX 1 on turnigy 9x. I can only seem to change AUX2

The other thing is that AUX1 twitches in CF. The number twitches between 1480 and 1481 and then jumps back to 1479 every few seconds
 
Here is my Receiver setup in case you see something wrong there as well

So, I figured out channel mapping on the transmitter. I set the hov pitch to Aux1. I had no idea that's how channel mapping worked. But, I'm still having a hard time getting the motors to activate from the transmitter.
 
I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong. I set Aux1 to gear. and when I flip the gear switch it jumps to 1900 roughly. The motors don't budge. Even with Aux2 armed, it still won't budge. The other problem is the ranges I set don't restrict the transmitter.
 
The top of cleanflight has the parachute highlighted red. Saying it's in safety mode. Any reason why might that be? Is that what's not allowing the motors to run. Because for a brief moment messing around with the TX, I did see all 4 motors spin.

edit: threw some code in and fixed the issue.

Got the drone going! Now I'm trying to figure out how to make the battery last as long as possible :mad:
