Hi You cant use the spectrum dx6i to control 6 channels because channels 5&6 are not full function channels on the spectrum radio . Ian sells a radio that controls all the channels and not to expensive.

I hate it when receivers have names and not numbers

So try this typically (apart from planet radios)

Steering is 1 channel
Throttle is 2nd channel

So hopefully your descriptions should have steering, then throttle, etc

normally (depending on the radio mode)

IBU1 - rx 2
IBU2 - rx 1
3 -3
4-4
5-5
6-6

As you have a IBU2 Pro if you only connect first 4 channels turn off dip switch #6 otherwise you never start the engine

Make sure the throttle stick is in the centre and re-do the radio to IBU2 configurations.
