1.47v.....


rx pack connected does the same thing.

hmmm nice vid until that point, sucks man

Sounds like a partial short in the low voltage section of the control board. I'd say it's bad enough to warrant getting an RMA and sending it back to Castle.

Yeah, I'll call Monday morning. I was wrong the fan does not come on at all when plugged into Castle link, but does twitch when the power is turned on. I'm done messing with it until Monday.

ouch i hope we dont have another traxxas evx failure rate on our hands. I got one on the way too, cause i smoked my mm i hope i dont regret getting one before all the bugs are worked out.

I'm cool with being one of the, if not the first consumer to kill one. I troubleshoot for a living, being part of any bug fixing just sits well with me for some reason. I have a tc4 and zx-5 sp to keep me occupied while this get's sorted out.

My CL issue may be the CL it's self. No idea how it stopped working, but it will not link with the MM in my buggy either. red light only on the CL, lights come on the MM, will not link, usb direct to MM works fine.

The MM doesn't use the link via the receiver plug though, so I would imagine it's not supposed to work with the castle link like that (if that's what you are saying). If you have a mamba 25 or similar, give that a shot.

It could be that the switching BEC failed for some reason (infant mortality possibly?) Call in on Monday and we'll get you taken care of.

Me too! Just my luck! My Mamba Monster died after about 2 min. I’m running 6s with a Neu 1515 1.5y. I never really put any load on it. So I think it was the BEC. When I turn on the switch the fan just twitches a little. I have a race in two weeks so I ordered a second one today with an external BEC. I hope this works. I’m sending it back Monday. I hope I just happened to get a lemon.

Mine worked well today, I put it in a crawler so the BEC got a good workout.

We're not off to a good start. :( I'm glad I held off on the beta's

well i would have but i smoked my mm a few days after the presale started so i was like well what else am i gonna do. Im sure cc will do everything in there powers to make sure everyone that has a bad mmm get a replacement asap.

I agree with you. It's just a temporary set back. They're good guys. :yes:
