Not sure what kind of radio you are using...but if its Spektrum you will have to plug a servo battery pack into the tranceiver the first time you set it up. Reason is because the mamba instructions require manipulation of radio controls immediately upon turning the ESC on. This is not possible unless you have a battery pack plugged into the transceiver (the radio system requires a few seconds to establish a link between the RX/TX and immediate manipulation of controls is not possible with the mamba internal battery eliminator circuitry). Without the battery pack, the power for the RX comes via the ESC and when you turn on the ESC switch...the RX/TX link is established (after a couple of seconds) and then radio control manipulation is possible.

Another potential arming problem is associated with improper end-point-adjustments (EPA). Make sure you set your forward, reverse, and brake EPAs to 110. You can dial them more precisely later...once you get the intial setup process completed.

I hope this helps.
