MMM Flashing Green & Yellow? Quick help please - 03.24.2011, 02:06 PM

Trying to get my mates hyper up and running using my MMM that was in my savage. It is connected to a HPI Torq 2200kv motor...

Everything connected up, steering working so Rx and Tx are bound. But the MMM flashing Yellow and Green...

i wasnt trying to calibrate and i had no throttle input.

My lipos are also fully charged???
On the castle site, it says

If you are not calibrating and have no throttle input:

Flashing Green and Yellow =low voltage cut-off(battery)


I tried to recalibrate the RX/TX, i held full throttle down and connected the power up, it just beeped twice and flashed green and yellow....

Has anyone experienced this??? can i get some quick help please before the sun goes down

THANK YOU & please dont tell me the MMM is not working, as it has just been sitting for a few months while my truck has been apart

What lvc setting do you have programmed? may be higher than the voltage you are using. I do this all the time...

Set for auto lipo? Turn the lvc off completely and see if that helps.

Double check on the Castle Link and see what the LVC is set for. Is it on Auto-LiPo or do you have it on a custom cut-off (IE 20.4V for a 6s?) How many cells are you running? If you do have on Auto-LiPo, when you turn on the ESC listen the to noises that it makes. The first chime is the initialization, then there will be a number of single beeps, that's the Auto-LiPo cell count. Make sure the number of beeps matches the number of LiPo cells.

Are you getting steering control? What happens if you unplug the ESC from the receiver and power it up, is it still the yellow and green flashing?

you can also try to put the rx throttle channel in reverse and then calibrate the esc.
