To change settings on your Mamba
Max ESC without a computer:
We recommend removing your
pinion gear before calibration
and manual programming as a
safety precaution!
STEP 1: We’re starting with the
transmitter ON and the ESC switched
OFF and not connected to the battery.
STEP 2: Plug a battery into the ESC.
Hold full throttle on the transmitter and
turn the ESC switch ON. After a few
seconds you will get the four rings in
a row signaling full throttle calibration.
Keep on holding full throttle.
STEP 3: After a few more seconds, you
will hear another four rings in a row.
After the second group of four rings,
relax the throttle to neutral. If you have
successfully entered programming
mode, the ESC will beep twice, pause,
and repeat the two beeps.

The programming sequence is always
presented in sequential order and
always starts with the first setting
(Reverse Lockout) within the first
section (Reverse Type). The first
beep(s) signifies which section of
the programming you are in and the
second beep(s) signify which setting is
waiting for a “yes” or “no” answer.
As you go sequentially through the
options, you will need to answer
“yes” by holding full throttle, or
answer “no” by holding full brake
until the ESC accepts your answer by
beeping rapidly. Once an answer has
been accepted, relax the throttle back
to neutral for the next question. After a
“no” answer is accepted, the ESC will
then present you with the next option
in that section. After a “yes” answer is
accepted, the ESC knows you aren’t
interested in any other option in that
section, so it skips to the first option in
the next section.
