plugged it into the receiver and it didn't arm. So I unplugged the batts from it, and plugged them back in.
Went through it's start-up routine just fine, armed, and I drove the car about 20 feet. It stopped wheels turned (like the BEC turned off) then came back to life, drove another 2 feet and FIRE!!! 
My new super bad azz Mamba XL is dead, and it tried to take my car and lipo's with it. The batts appear fine aside from a little loss of heat shrink in a few spots and the receiver looks ok too.
I just plugged in my MMM and the car runs/ drives fine. Looks like I'll be spending some time on the phone tomorrow with Castle support. |
DrKnow -- I want to make sure I get your XL for eval in engineering. We want to see if we can find out why it failed.
Please PM me here with your contact info. I'd like to flag your unit with receiving.
Thanx!
