"ERROR TypeError: Object(...) is not a function" using AngularFirestore and firebase

Question

I want to use firebase and angularfire2 in my app, first of all, I installed them, and for the declarations:

in environment.ts

export const environment = {
    production: false,
    firebase: {
    apiKey: 'sfsdfdsff',
    authDomain: 'sfsdfdf',
    databaseURL: 'https://ng-sfsdfsf.firebaseio.com',
    projectId: 'ng-fitnesssfsdfdsf',
    storageBucket: 'ng-fsdfsdfsfdecff5.appspot.com',
   messagingSenderId: '21331323'
   }
  };

in app.module.ts, imports:

AngularFireModule.initializeApp(environment.firebase),
AngularFirestoreModule

in the component where want to get my data:

import { AngularFirestore } from 'angularfire2/firestore';

until this moment I have not an error, but when I want to declare my variable in the constructor to use it:

constructor(private trainingService: TrainingService, private 
db:AngularFirestore) { }

I have an error:

ERROR TypeError: Object(...) is not a function
at eval (firestore.js:28)
at ZoneDelegate.invoke (zone.js:388)
at Zone.run (zone.js:138)

In my package.json:

"angularfire2": "^5.0.0-rc.8.0",
"core-js": "^2.4.1",
"firebase": "^5.0.2",

and I don't know why?

thanks for your help

I had same problem but i solved it. You can follow my work. This is a example for ionic.

Install rxjs

npm i rxjs@^6.0 rxjs-compat

import rxjs-compact to file

import { AngularFireDatabase, AngularFireList } from 'angularfire2/database';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs-compat';
import { map } from 'rxjs-compat/operators';
