Topic name updated to indicate subject of discussion.

Channel 1  THROTTLE                  White     Signal 1  
Channel 2  AILERON or ROLL      Blue       Signal 2  
Channel 3  ELEVATOR or PITCH  Yellow    Signal 3

Channel 5  GEAR - Flight mode    Orange   Signal 5  
Channel 6  AUX1                           Purple    Signal 6  


BUT In my case no orange or purple wire

watch this video

and read this manual
https://wiki.openpilot.org/display/WIKI/CopterControl+-+CC3D+-+Atom+Hardware+Setup

wire it in the sequence and try i suppose that should work

where did u buy this board from ...?

any ways....you can always check and switch the channels using the GCS software in the input section

Close up picture of my cable ,white cable seems like coming out of wrong place too

@madaquif ,I bought it from QuadKopters.com.Where to connect on the 3 pins ,as mine is having single pin connector?

@cyberhack,I have watched the video before,that person is also using a cable with 3 pin connector,also cable colours are matching the reference picture.

As per reference picture the white wire has to be 3rd wire,but in my case its 5th !

as suggested by cyberhack try connecting in sequence.....if it does not work....pm satya sir...he should be the best person to guide you.....

Done that and waiting for his help.
I came across a similar or exact same issue in rcgroups.com
They say that this cable is needs to be used after checking polarity and can be dangerous,if not properly connected

Lol nthng is coming out wrong from no where brother chillax
Am sure satya sir will help you out as per now if u want you may connect the wires as mentioned in the pic and links  I mean the one having all 3 colored wire put it in throttle and rest put it in the sequence they come out

Don't refer anythng for now Jus's put the wires in a assumed sequence i know that the bec having all 3 colors are coming randomly from different sequence Jus's assumed it as throttle and for rest put it in number wise
Cross check with the GUI connecting ur board to PC or laptop

Just follow the sequence of wires , ignore the color.
connect red and black wire to power the receiver all the pins in middle row is Positive and last row is negative in all receiver.

You have to take care of this red and black wire only, because these are the power wires. where ever you connect the other wires, it wont cause any damage.
oh , it's now only came to mind that you still don't have a receiver !! , so please don't worry about this now, i can help you by marking in receiver if you want.

I am indeed a bit worried because ,some are saying this could smoke the rx.
And the suggested cable is below

I am leaving the topic for the time being,on the basis of support offered to me ,I will keep updated as am yet to get my receiver from sooraj.(@sooraj,kindly send it with markings made -but can that be useful ?as problem is with wire colours),as am a total newbie ,here- so my doubts may appear silly to veterans!
Trial and error method must work out ok,but if the colour coding was perfect it would have been great for newbies.
I was just checking all the parts and going through various videos.But couldn't see a cable I had hence got confused,thanks everyone for the support,once again.

yeah, leave it for now...
I ill mark the receiver, for that plaese reply  the colors of wire from black wire side sequentially.
is this sequence correct for your wire ? from left to right  : black, red, blue1, yellow1, white, green, blue2 , yellow2

Yes it is,I have already sent those pictures to you!

@sooraj they are same as on my cc3d i suppose u may refer that ...

Satya Gupta of QuadKopters have promised to give me detailed instructions ,I am overwhelmed by the support I got from everyone ,thanks to Satya and other RC india members 

It seems that most users have a cable with similar colour coding here,with two yellows and two blues.

Anil sir, i have responded to your mail. If you want i can put the same details here too..

@Satya,thank you for the detailed explanation .If you don't mind ,please share it here so that others too will be benefitted.

So the only wires need to be worried about are red and black ,right?

One more thing I wish to clarify,where to connect the single connector on to the 3 rows of pins on reciever ?middle one?

On that receiver , if held like as in pic, top row of pins are signals, middle row is 5v and bottom row is ground. You can connect the red wire anywhere in the middle row and black wire anywhere in the bottom row

Got it

I tried connecting cc3d,every time during the upgrade process,I get the error"timed out while waiting for the board to be fully connected".Tried with different cables.Lights blue blinking and green steady light are present.Even open pilot software wizard shows tx and rx status connected,but not able to proceed.
