Initial Mamba Maxx setup

[rockwerks]

step B:

Now hold full brake and after a few seconds you'll hear miltiple tones and the yellow LED will come on

now what did you guys do?

full reverse ?

part reverse?

1: Full throttle
2: full brake
3: neutral. Once it sees all 3 points, you'll get the light-show, and it'll be good to go, or program with the Castle Link.

what is full brake? full reverse?

also using the spektrum I cant get past the initial setup

full throttle ok but wont react to full brake/reverse

any suggestions

Spektrum takes a while to establish its link to the receiver, and while it's doing that, your speedo is searching for a signal from the receiver. Which it can't get because the Spektrum hasn't booted up yet.

I don't know if there's a way around that or not. YGPM

I bet you could use a regular radio (like the TQ3) to get the initial set up to take. Then switch over to the Spektrum radio.

the idea is to set it to the radio itself.........but I finally got it to take last night
