E-fanatic · **mmm combo and motor brakes? -** 12.05.2008, 09:46 PM

I have my system in my e-revo with a futaba 2.4 3pm. I have my brakes set at 2% and if I push the brakes at all it still locks up. No matter what I do the brakes just go to straight lock up??????? Please help I dont want to kill my diffs or drive shafts!!! The front flipps from touching the brakes gets old quick

Try re-calibrating the radio. Check the expo. settings on the Tx.

I recallibrated the radio twice end epa is set at 100% on both foward and reverse! The expo is set at 0 and I am in HRS mode

I guess I can try ppm mode tommarrow to see if that makes a difference!

I don't think that will help. I'd try it w/o HRS mode. Not sure if that makes a diference but it's worth a shot. Maybe reinstall the MMM firmware?

I hope I can reinstall it b/c my labtop has a broken motherboard in it . I was surprised that it even turned on long enough for me to program the mmm. So I get to play on my Wii for the internet untill I can get another computer! I just hope I can get the labtop to cut on tommarrow

Well, hopefully a CC rep will see this thread soon and will be able to help you out.

I will attempt to reinstall the software and put the radio on ppm instead of hrs and see how it goes! THANKS FOR THE HELP! Wish me luck!

Well I got the computer to turn back on (after about 20+ attemps) I installed software and all is good. working 100%.

What's nitro Thanks again!

Also got to keep the radio in hrs mode.

I had to turn the braking down to 75% then make it a steep expo curve for braking. then ended up bringing the epa down on the radio too

Niceeee! You're welcome!

It sounded like the MMM wan't recognizing reverse throttle input properly. That or the settings in the firmware were corrupted. Either way a program update/refresh usually does the trick. Same with computers, unless your Mobo is cracked... How did that happen again?

My hard drive decided to die on me and at the same time the cd burner quit burning(it reads though) so I lost everything . I was mad and punched the keyboard(not really all that hard but apparently hard enough) I bought a new harddrive just to find out I killed the motherboard.

where did you get your combo from?

Sammus · 12.07.2008, 12:37 AM

Did you make sure your throttle was reversed on your radio? I've had this problem heaps, so I'm actually driving around in reverse, everything gets super hot real quick for some reason, then hitting the 'brakes' is actually going from brakes to throttle, and just locks up the drive train....

edit: sorry, i shoulda read more than what i did, I notice the problem was fixed :)
