How to start xorg server if you dont have a xinitrc?
If you don’t have an xinitrc, please answer the original question from the very first response you got here: how do you start x – in other words, how were you starting x when you were running i3. If you don’t have an xinitrc you could not have been using startx.

Why is xrdp / Xorg not starting correctly?
/usr/lib/xorg/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X server. Normally this would not cause a problem. However on this version of XRDP, this causes the timeout error you see in the log.
Do you need Suid to run Xorg as root?
For xrdp, running Xorg should not need SUID or even to be run as root, as it doesn’t need access to the console/hardware and is purely an in-memory virtual desktop. Much effort was spent in Xorg/distros to enable running as non-root! I promise I’ll address this issue but please give me time.
Do you have to reinstall Arch Linux to get it to start?
No. If you find yourself in a hole of your own creation, the solution is definitely not to break out the backhoe which is what “reinstalling” would be equivalent to. One should never need to reinstall arch linux, just fix it. We can help you fix it if you want, but we can’t help if you just give up and nuke your current install.
