AR410 4 Channel Sport Receiver
My NEW AR 410 sport Receiver, Bound and setup just fine with my DX6i transmitter for a week at home. Went to our flying field. Did the range check, tested the flight controls again and proceeded to start the nitro engine. Throttle at idle, made 1(one) stroke of the throttle stick and servo went to full throttle and would not do anything else (locked up tight). Changed servos and still the same thing. Haven't had a chance to have anyone else bind to it with a different transmitter. Are these NEW antenna less receivers prone to failure?

These new receivers are, imho, some of the best we've ever made. They're certainly better range than older ones.
Does the transmitter work with a different receiver?
How are you powering your model? Cells, count, chemistry?
Have you checked your switch? The most failure-prone electronics in are power switches used for flight packs for all brands, and not just in the hobby industry. Switches suck. Try removing the switch from the system and powering straight off the battery. Check the voltage while you have it out.
Receivers, by contrast, are at the top of the list for reliability, and these are at the top of the top of the list. The last thing I'd expect to be a problem is a new AR410.
