mamba micro pro with punk dig help!
 
I just installed my axial 55t motors today and I wsnted to finally after months of waiting take it out but when I turn it on everything is smooth steering works but when I go to throttle it the motors on each axial just like shake the wheels forwards and backwards nomatter if im in reverse or forwards its so weird im not sure if anyone else has ever had this anyhelp could be great:cry:

Your issue is that the micro pro dosent work with two motors.
Or you dont have it calibrated nor programmed via castle link.

geekfreek95 06-24-2011 04:24 PM

but I ran it through the punk dig to take care of that and I know people run them this way

Jeepkid 06-24-2011 04:29 PM

Well, I havent seen one person run 1 Mamba micro pro on a 2.2 moa yet, till now. Castle warrenty is void once you put one 550 can on that esc. Or do you have the mamba max pro?

geekfreek95 06-24-2011 04:33 PM

ok if nobody runs them then why is it in harelys xr-10 guide and why does shelby run one or at least he did

Jeepkid 06-24-2011 04:35 PM

Dude, Idk I run dual micro pros. Maybe you saw MMP in his specs that meant Mamba max pro. Idk, I will dig around for you. I'm just stating facts.

EDIT: Everyone that has ran micro pros, runs dual esc with either a novak dig, 4pk, 4pl, wantasummit adaptor, and I believe thats it.

hmm ill have to save up and order a 2nd then idk im gonna try and find out someway to make it work with this setup because i thought the punk dig made it so I only needed one esc but I mite trade my dad for his rooster if need be

Jeepkid 06-24-2011 04:50 PM

The punkdig dose do that, but the micro pro is a 1/18scale esc. It can handle one motor, but usually fry when hooked to two motors. I think your safe, because of the fact you have 55t motors. Did the esc give you any beeps when you turned it on the first time. Id like to help you figure this out.

geekfreek95 06-24-2011 05:03 PM

Yes and I set it up as it says in the book

Jeepkid 06-24-2011 05:14 PM

Hmmm, its in brushed reversing mode?

Moved to electronics.

geekfreek95 06-24-2011 06:20 PM

Well idk it's not been plugged in to a commuter

Jeepkid 06-24-2011 06:28 PM

They come from the factory in brushless mode, that is why it isent working."thumbsup"
If you got a castle link program it that way, also upload the new firmware for it. That way you can have crawler dragbrake and crawler reverse"thumbsup"

micro pros arent rated for two 540 motors. iam running 2 cc micro sidewinders in my xr and its an amazing setup but you have to have 2 of them. like Jeepkid said. its an 1/18th scale esc. get another one and you will be set.

what radio are you running?

geekfreek95 06-24-2011 08:15 PM

im running a dx3E but if I program it diffrent will it work?

With a single Micro Pro ESC? Maybe, until you let the smoke out.
Either get a bigger ESC (rated to run 2 540 motors) or a 2nd Micro Pro & run dual ESC's (1/motor).
Also, did you check to see if it's still in brushless mode??

You can use the DX3E with the wantasummit mix control...it's just $40 and works great...losikid sells them here in the vendors section

You will most likely burn the single esc up if you were able to get it programmed correctly and run it on 2 motors.
