[quote="RobotWorkshop"]Don't the Victor 883's expect a signal like a regular servo 1ms-2ms? in duration at approx 20ms intervals?

One odd thing I recall about the Victor 883 is that some radios (like Futaba) often required the use of an inline device to "buffer" to signals.  How do you have them connected to your SX chip?  You may need to look at what these inline buffer devices did.  If the signal isn't getting to the Victor 883 then perhaps adding a pullup resistor may fix the problem.

I was having trouble finding good documentation about the 883s, but taking what you said into consideration with what I've read, I think you're right. I'll modify my code to fit.

There appears to be some sort of buffer (looks like an IC on a small PCB covered in heatshrink) in the cables going to the Victors. The device I'm working on was built years ago; I'm just trying to remodel it.
