I loaded this new firmware and the my MM does not start anymore!!!! the lights only blink.. the BEC comes on and sends voltage to the steering, but that's about it...
no chiming from the motor... no response from the throttle... when i went back to an older firmware, there was no change... what gives??

Help Please...

edit: The fan stayed on the entire time...

Yep... I used a Castle link... installed the new firmware because it was there and I also wanted the option of increasing Auto LVC to 3.5V per cell... but I when i started up the esc,
there was no chime confirmation, just the lights blinking... went back to the previous firmware and the problem persists... No Chimes, no throttle response and the fan stayed on.

You initially said you have the MM (Mamba Max), but you also say "the fan stayed on". So do you have the Mamba Max or the Mamba Monster (MMM)? The issue in the other thread was only for the Mamba Max.

Yay! I had put the old-new sofware on my truck yesterday and went to run it today and it was dead as a doorknob. Got home and saw this thread and intalled the new-new software and it runs, no more paperweights :) thanks for the speedy fix castle creations.

Hmmmm... good to know you got the fix working.



No go for me man... I downloaded the new firmware (CURRENT CASTLE LINK VERSION: 3.255)... turned on the esc... the lights come on...
the fan starts up high and then settles when the yellow lights start to blink (but stays on a slower spin rate)... the Light react to the throttle
positions, forward, reverse and neutral... but no movement.:whip:
