possible new firmware problem mm
 
i downloaded the firmware and now sometimes my system will beep and lock up at full throttle.
and what do the new controller settings and arming settings mean?

Have you tried the updated update? Possibly will solve the issue.

The arming thing is to do with synth. radios, the TX needs a little more time to connect up to the RX, so the arming sequence has been slowed doen abit to prevent a runaway from occuring. More info about the updates is in the CC sub-section. When you say it locks up at full throttle, is this when you are running the vehicle or its just on a stand testing it?

Also What radio are you using? If it's a spektrum or something else with built in failsafe is it set correctly?

its a TQ3 and its when i run the vehicle

hey i just noticed that mine is beeping once with/all three lights coming on from a neutral position while sitting on stand, using spektrum, and i had to reprogram the esc. once i updated the firmware

**sitting on stand it will do this about once every 30 sec.

so turn it on and see if yours does this

also hooked up to the hvmaxx 4.5 motor , will try to see if it does this on the 9xl

It's probably a good idea to reprogram your radio to the ESC anytime an update is done, especially with something as big as this update...

My guess is the batteries - You are pulling too many amps and your batteries can't take it.

Voltage is dropping and esc is resetting...

entj - yes mine does the same - Lots of music (beeping) too when running at low speeds esp reverse...

Still some cogging on my MBX5T :( - Need to play with some settings :`-(

Mine is now giving beep every few seconds when the radio is turned off after driving the car. Think it's a "failsafe" indicator...

i did what BrianG told me to do and now it works just fine.
