| Problem with Mamba max pro????
Having a problem with my MMP that I need help with. It has an intermittent problem since I got it with on powering on I get 2 tones then the fan comes on. I have steering, but no throttle. I cycle the on off switch slowly a couple times, then finally it will give me all 3 tones and I am off and running. Updated firmware to 1.29beta, didn't help. Fast forward to today, it gives me the 2 tones, got steering, fan on, no throttle. Cycled the on off switch, then nothing, nada. No lights, no steering. So I tried updating firmware again and it takes the update, lights on. Plug it back into truck, nothing. |

Sounds like the switch, or the BEC may be bad.

Thought about the switch myself. Hopefully the bec isn't bad. I had it set at default(which I believe is 5v?) Thanks for the fast response John. |

I normally solder the switch leads together. I loathe switches. We can use the battery plug to turn on and off, or have a plug to interrupt one of the power wires.
