Is that a Spectrum Radio? I had a buddy that always had trouble getting his Mamba to link with his Spectrum Radio. It was something about the Mamba having to set up, and the radio searching for a channel. Sorry Im no help, but it sounds like a similar problem.

I had a similiar problem but with the Spektrum I believe it was due to the throttle EPA not set to 100%. Do a search as I think it someone had the same problem before ;)

The receiver is bound. His issue is that the Mamba is not finding neutral. The Mamba blinks like it should at FT and FB than just blinks yellow. He is using a Futaba radio and not Spektrum.

i will try setting the EPAs at 100% instead of 120%, maybe that will help. i did a search and had no luck, but then again i might be searching the wrong way,

If it isn't finding center then you need to increase the deadband via castle link.
