I used my tx to program my drag brake but curious this is my first time and now that I have it set, the yellow light is beeping like it’s supposed to but what do I do now to set everything and begin to drive it? Do I just power it off then power it back on?
@tomandrews53924 жыл бұрын
Auxiliary wire I use quit a bit in crawling and racing applications ..There is a white wire on your ESC and you connect to a unused channel to witch you have a rotary control of .. for crawling you set the aux wire to crawler break and this gives you adjustable crawler break on the fly ..so descending you can start at 100% break you rotate the selected switch to lower the drag break amount to slowly descends down hill second when on level ground it allowes you to take the drag break completely out of the picture so you don't flip over...try it youll like itt...

On the BEC voltage... didn't hear you mention it, but MAKE SURE your receivers can handle more than 6v(standard for most RTR receivers). FYI, all Spectrum DSM2 & DSMR receivers can handle up to 9.0v.

@CSL33 Жыл бұрын
Most ALL Traxxas electronics can only safely handle 6V max, including not only the Rx but also any shift servos as well. Even the TRX power servos (330/400) which recommend a separate TRX BEC, that only puts out 6V (but more amps than stock ESC). To have your steering servo powered by a higher voltage in those cases, you'll need a separate, non-TRX, BEC for it, and leave the ESC on 6V, or replace everything with stuff that can withstand 7.4V.

Hey there Francis i have a brand new mamba x esc and i purchased a new but opened holmes hobbies puller pro v2 2700kv stubby to pair to the mamba x but when taking the holmes outnof the opened box it has yellow shrink tube around the bullets on the motor like it was used before because they dont come with the yellow shrink tube. My question is would it keep my mamba x esc from making any audible alerts because it doesnt do anything but have a yellow light on The esc. Possibly bad motor ? Please any help would be much appreciated 🙏
