mamba monster help!
 

O.K. So bought a used Traxxas summit 2 days ago, everything was working great. Bored, i decided to hook up the mamba monster to castle link just to see what firmware he had on it. I read that the older version 1.2 was best for the summit (less clogging). When checking, looks like version 1.24 and up is the only version available for the v3 MMM. Now that i have hooked it up to castle link i need to re calibrate it to my radio (stock traxxas 2.4) but it won't let me???? Steering works, tried the calibration procedure but it doesn't work. ECS does its chime and flashes then goes right to solid yellow light????? help! thanks

O.K been trying again this morning and still can't figure it out. Had a few "pops" last night so thought maybe i was over looking something. I found the LED code charts located here:

http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20020

Says when its solid yellow = indicates neutral and armed ?????

Steering works but nothing for throttle, its like its not recognizing asny type of throttle response. Even when trying to calibrate (hold full throttle then power up esc, it does the exact same thing. Says its supposed to:

-hold full throttle, turn switch ON
-After a few seconds you'll hear multiple tones and red LED will come ON
-Now hold full full brake and after a few seconds you'll hear multiple tones and yellow LED will come ON
-Now relax to neutral and after a few seconds you'll hear multiple tones and ALL LEDs will come light up
-A few seconds later the ESC will arm with a double tone and your ready to go

It never lets me do this, just chimes and goes to solid yellow. Please help, thanks

in the castle software the are arming settings for 2.4g try adding a second on it and if you have a another radio try it

Reverse your throttle channel and try setting it up again.

It was working fine until i tried changing the firmware. Went from 1.24 to the newest one. Didn't work so went back the the original one. Really wanted the 1.2 version since everyone says it works best with the summit but it says its not available. I didn't change anything on the radio anf now only the steering works. I also tried reversing the throttle channel just in case but still nothing??? Please help. thanks guys
