Replacing traxxas EXV-2 with MM
I'm having trouble getting my MM properly set to run the dual titans in my E-Maxx.
I've got the motors wired in parallel(both motor - to ESC black, both motor + to ESC red). I have not tried doing the high powered brushed motor setup yet, but I doubt that is the issue here. While this setup works fine for the most part(more powerful than the EVX-2), the issue is the braking. If I used proportional braking w/ reverse lockout, it seems to forget about the braking part(no brakes) and after the 2 seconds of no throttle, I get reverse, but I'm usually still rolling forward, so it's basically like having an on/off switch for brakes that simply lock up the wheels=flip. :oops: If I use the forward to brake to reverse setting, it's just forward to reverse. Rest of my settings: Brake amount - 50% Reverse throttle - 50% (seems super slow) Punch control - 30% Drag brake - disabled Start power - low Motor timing - lowest (0) Motor type - Brushed reversing Arm timing - 2 seconds Setup: I didn't do any motor syncing or anything like that. Just soldered connectors to the motor leads, configured the MM and ran it. I'd previously been running a 7XL that seemed to lose it's ability to brake and started cogging more at low speeds. Added a cap to the ESC power leads, boosted brake power and motor start power which seemed to help for awhile, but the brakes suddenly faded again a few runs later. Additionally, as the power switch had gotten ripped off at the PCB, I have the solder pads joined together now so the switch is constantly on as I don't have the dexterity to solder points that small. |
Have you tried 100% brake?

Changed a few settings:
Brake amount - 100% Reverse throttle - 100% Punch control - disabled Start power - High Brakes seem to be trying to work, but still weak and I am able to use reverse before the motors have come to a complete stop which is not what the manual says the ESC should do. I am wondering how much of this has to do with the fact that there are 2 motors and not just one hooked up. Anyone got experience doing this? |
