brijar · **Reset Mamba Monster Without Castle Link -** 12.17.2010, 03:12 AM

Just bought myself a Mamba Monster Max and put it in my REVO. Calibrated fine and everything, but with 6s A123 and a Castle 1518 (1800kv) motor geared 21/36, the truck only does about 25mph. It can't wheelie hardly at all and as soon as I touch the brakes it does everything it can to stop the motor immediately, then puts it in reverse. I'm pretty sure this is all just a programming issue, but I don't have a Castle Link handy to reprogram it. Is there any way to reset the controller to stock settings without a Castle Link? The hobby shop is closed tomorrow so I can't go up there to see if anyone has one I could borrow for 5 minutes.

Also, the fan doesn't seem to work (took it out of the case and applied 5v to it). Anyone know where I could get a cheap replacement (< $5)?

Thanks,
Brijar
