i know that the mamba 25 only puts out 1.5 for the servo and i know you have to run an 5 cell reciver pack but how do you make that work thanks

disconnect the red wire from the mamba to the reciever.

you can isolate the servo power as well, and use the reciever pack for servos only, and use the BEC for the receiver and esc.

Mine works well with one servo, and I haven't tried two, nor will I.

Another option is a servo regulator plugged into the reciever.

I'm running a Mamba Maxx but I just removed the red wire from the plug that comes from the ESC. Pulled it out nicely and shrink wrapped it back out of the way. That way if I decide to use it again,no need to cobble something together. Then I just pluged the rec. pack in the battery post of the rec.

I was gonna try the 5th cell tap but I'm running 8 cells. From reading the thread linked above,there was issues dealing with more than 6 cells. I'll just keep my rx. pack
