Does the Mamba Max work with the torque control?

[crazyjr]

I have a 3+year old mamba max esc with a 4600kv motor, I tryed the torque control and could not get the motor kv cycle to work. I tryed different methods for getting it to work and nothing, If i plugged in the programmer (computer) first (i believe this is correct), the only thing that works off the radio is the servo. I tryed to do it with the battery plugged in but would not go to program mode, I never tryed the switch though. Could someone tell me if I'm doing something wrong? I calibrated esc with transmitter before doing anything so i know that is not the problem. I noticed the motor is losing its front bearing, There is considerable up and down movement (about 1 MM or so) and it still runs when input is added, Just a split second to make sure the esc wasn't the cause of the motor test not working. Could the motor bearing be causing the Motor test to not work? I don't think so, due to it never tryed, the motor never moved during the test mode.

Has anyone tryed the new 1406 (4600kv) or 1410 (3800kv)In an application lighter than a SC truck? Like a stadium truck? I have been thinking due to the bad bearing. While i'm at it, I might upgrade to the mamba max pro as well, I may as well exchange to a 4 poler and see if it's all that


thanks and hope you can help out
