mmm wont work with castle link??? - 08.04.2009, 11:37 PM
Well i finally got a MMM for my losi eight-e but it doesnt want to link to my castle link. I got it to work one time but it was after closing and opening the castle link several times. I havent been able to make it work since any ideas on what it might be???

Sometime I have to unplug mine and plug it back up a few times before it recognizes it. Not sure why but everything else is good.

I have run into this one before using vista....call castle and they will walk you through a simple step of renaming a file. It worked for me the first 2 times and then the castle link stopped working. After I called, prob. solved

1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S

Do you have a different CastleLink device to try? And maybe a different USB cable? These intermittent things usually points to something mechanical (broken wire, loose solder joint, etc).

Agreed. First rule of PC hardware troubleshooting: If in doubt, trade suspected bad for known good.

One time my MMM didn't work with castle link, but when I switched the on/off switch to on, it worked.

The wires are plugged in the right way. The esc light up yellow when I plug it in but the castle link doesn't read my esc
