Default mamba monster no worky worky help please

well before i posted i used that informase search button i found a lot of similar problems but nothing like mine ,this is new mamba monster 2200kv first run it worked beautifully then i turned it off changed the battery , the only thing was there was a slight spark from the deans plug when i was starting too hook the battery up, i pulled the battery away every thing looked fine so i hooked the battery up no spark this time , now the steering works , the fan comes on, & the green led is blinking oh and it beeps twice when you turn it on that's it.
any help would be greatly appreciated

are you running a 4s???if so thats deans is not enough connection. First I would run 6mm bullets. my friend just had this happen. He sent it to castle and the 1 of the caps were blown. I was starved for power. just my .02 cents.

this is why I love nitro

Are your batteries the same amount of cells?.Your description isnt very clear but my first thought is that You need to calibrate your remote to the Speed control..Read your mamba manual,its all in there

Have you set it up for that type of batt?.If its still on a lipo setting then the cut off wont allow that battery to work possibly..I use the bullets and deans on a 5,s set up with that same esc,the sparking isnt all that unusual for the Monster.Mine sparks all the time.

well all fixed , just needed too be recalibrated , i haven't set it because i am waiting for my lipo to come in the mail , i am too lazy/not smart enough too change it back & forth, the sparking had me worried thanks for the reassurance on that.
thank sooo very much for all the help , you are a life saver
