Well that's easy...
1. connect the futaba servo to your receiver in channel 1.
2. connect the esc to your receiver again but to channel 2.
3. if your esc has four wires then the colors should be: blue & yellow, red & black.
4. if not then i am not familiar with traxxas escs
5. if step 3 is then goto step 6 :D
6. the yellow & blue wires are your motor connectors... which should be bullet type
7. yellow is positive & blue is negative.
8. connect them according to polarity.
9. the red & black wires are your battery connectors... which should have a tamiya type connector.
10. connect the battery your esc
11. you should be done if that's the type of wires you have...

did you get my stuff from the hobby shop?
anyway,
make sure you have everything
the traxxas ESC has red and black wires
on your motor on the top there should be a little plus sign on one of the sides
the red wire goes on the plus side tab
on the minus side the black one should go
the connect those to your prewired ESC
the radio system wiring is the same as above (what the other guy said)
your welcome
