Can't get mmp esc to calibrate with traxxas slash 4x4

The flashing yellow light does not indicate a problem

It indicates you have 0 timing configured

Was added by Castle as a ROAR requirement to show the car is not running any added timing

THe timing has never been altered. THe trucks have ran under this configuration before the update . After doing some further extensive reading after posting this thread I think ill try another traxxas 2.4 tx and if that don't work ill roll the rx software to 1.21 if I have that version number.

Ok, since I've had no luck with 1.26 I went back to 1.22 and 1.21 on bioth of the escs respectively and then tried them vice versa. The thing I found now is I get a solid yellow light now so I'll have to go look that up in a bit. I even went as far as trying a different tx and a different rx and still to no avail did it work.


I went and opened my newer mmp sc 2400 combo box and hooked it up to the same receiver and same radio per the or instructions as they call them and it worked no matter what motor, esc, tx, rx, battery I used. This was on version 1.32 as well.

I did notice the esc that's the sc edition, (different sticker only from what I've been told) is different loking than the cases of the older mmp regular one's I bought last year. Was there a older edition that had trouble by chance?? I seem to remember reading somewhere about a esc that castle would replace per known issues but can't remember if it was the mmm or mmp combo as I read alot of stuff to kill time online.

Here's some pics of the mmp's that I have.







I hope I can get this taken care of soon. It is a P.I.T.B.
