STRANGE PROBLEM Emaxx BUILD
 

I 'm just finishing up install of a feiago 7xl motor, MM esc, castle Bec, running 2 maxamp 7 cell paks. when i pull the accelerator Fast and release it, the truck will accelerate on its own for about 1 to 2 secs. Im using the futaba 2.4 gig fast system. It does in for. or rev. If you accelerated slow it works ok. the esc settings are
punch 4
start power high
motor timing normal
motor type brushless
Any suggestions would be appreciated

I'll look in my manual, but I seem to remember something about one of the nitro assist functions being able to cause this...

Just noticed that was your first post :) Welcome to the forum!

You'll be suprised at how helpful the guys around here are.

Check the ABS and Throttle Acceleration settings (pages 36-38 in your manual), you might also switch from PPM (standard) to HRS (high speed response) to get less delay (page 29).

Hope this helps...

Welcome Emaxxnutt, told ya everyone is really quick and helpful in their responses. :yes:

You'll like it here alot!

Drknow- i did change from ppm to hrs didnt help actually it ran longer on hrs when releasing trigger.

Yea S/N You did. And i appreciate it..

The only thing i did notice when the motor stopped running i got all three lights on the esc were on for a fraction of a sec. and then went yellow. Doesnt do it when you pull the throttle slow and release

Have you got another receiver/transmitter you can test with this setup?

I think your start power is too high. If you expand the help (?) comments within the CastleLink application for that setting, you'll see a description that explains it requires a premium battery, cables, etc. to use that level. Personally I use low and still wheelie too much...

All I have is the traxxas AM radio and i did try that Before the futaba....Had no distance on reception with it..

Tried it on low no change.

Try the other radio. If it does it with the traxxas am radio you know its the esc, if it doesnt you know its some setting in the radio. SOunds really wierd. Not like anything I have heard of from a quark before.

I haven't heard of it from an MM either, and I run one with my 3PM. Weird. Try clearing the profile, make sure to reverse that annoying channel that you have to with all futaba radios (lol I say this because I always forget... throttle or brake?) then reprogram the tx to the esc. Maybe even throw the esc back to default settings, make sure its the latest firmware etc. Just start again from scratch :)
