Try turning the Auto Lipo back on, see if it starts working again.

I think we might have a bug in the cutoff settings that won't allow the controller to arm when cutoff is set to a fixed value.

It finally happened to me. At least I got to use my burn plate that I made!


...Casper, in all of his wonderous glory, came pouring out from under the body.!
Accompanied by a hissing sound we all started running towards the truck.
Pulled the body off as fast as we could and pulled the batteries off of the flaming ESC!

Dude, I gotta be honest...


...it was AWESOME! ha ha!

Its too bad that no-one had a camera.
I took pics when I got home though...

here ya go fella's;










I found one last use for my MMM before I send it back;



I figured "it was the least they could do"


Too bad it happened today, I wont be able to call until Tuesday... oh well.[/QUOTE]

I knew these v2's were gonna do this...it's gonna be a few months before the bugs get worked out. It will be a solid control its just gonna take some time. I said I wouldnt do this but I might grab a couple of em next summer. Ps my two bad hydras are doing the exact same thing! I mean their not arming.

its going to happen, when you have deadlines all things cant be adressed right away, i have lost no faith in CC, it happens to all things and MFRs, either get rid of your MMM's or deal with it. im keeping mine.

My MMM hasn't arrived yet, but I'm trying to learn from all the experience here. Granted, there are those that are frustrated. I can understand those feelings based on the months of waiting and returning items. The only way things will be resolved is to continue to post failure conditions and find the weak link(s) involved. I for one, am willing to post pics and vids of my experience once the MMM arrives to see what happens. Based on what I've read, there could be a BEC issue. I'm running a Tekno-converted REVO with ACE 1015 and 1313 servos. Should I use a CC BEC to spare the MMM from having to power these servos?


Oh yeah..Brian G, haven't forgotten about you.. I'm sending a little box your way.
