Default ESC Hell with Mamba Max Pro

Ok I have a Losi Comp Crawler with The 21.5 turn Xcelorin Crawler motor, a 11.1 volt 1500mAh Lipo pack and the Mamba Max Pro ESC. My Problem is half the time when I pull the trigger nothing happens or I'll get a long beep out of the ESC. What am I doing wrong or dose this ESC not like the Losi Sensored motor? What should thngs be set to in the ESC programing?

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

All I can think of is to make sure you are in sensored mode . Also have you tried adjusting the dead band ? Ive heard people complaining about the same problem with sensored motors but I have no experience with them myself .

Maybe your sensor wire has a loose connection? It is also better to use hybrid mode instead of strictly sensored. At startup sensored is smoother but at higher RPM's back EMF detection is much more accurate than the hall sensor.

Also what tx are you using?

I'm using a JR Racing xs3 Pro, so dose that mean I should use the SmartSence mode with my ESC? What firm ware version are you guys running?

I also turned up the BEC volts to 6 for my JR Z9100T steering servo, could this be causing me grief.

If you can't get it to work correctly call customer service.
