I have been following the instructions that came with the mamba and can not get it to calibrate. When I plug the battery in and apply full throttle and turn the switch on and wait for the mamba to flash green nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

make sure the esc is in channel 2 on the rec. also, my mamba's plug can fit into the rec. both ways, I have plugged it in backwards before, but the easy way to tell if that is your problem is if you have steering or not. I had no steering either when it was plugged in backwards.

I have no steering either way. Thanks

I have deans connectors installed and I starting playing around with them. If its halfway plugged in the speed controller works but only until its time to press full break. I also noticed the speed controller getting pretty warm.

Mr. Mugen

is it possible for you to take a pic of your set up? Also what battery are you using?

boatcapt

Thanks for the help guys. I figured it out. I had to adjust my endpoint adjustments, but I think that deans connector is bad. I have to have the plug half way out for it to get power. If I plug it all the way in, it has no power. Mugen, I have a 3 cell apogee lipo. Man this thing is fast, just about lost it in the sewer drain on its first run.

Mr. Mugen

keep it away from th3e sewer drains....lol. There have been a few folks on here that lost them due to the huge sewer drains that are apparently down there.
