HELP ! MMP + Spektrum RX = cutting out ?

Dude chill out , I did try a servo with a lot less draw than the 9100T , still had the same problem , MANY people have reported the same problems as I have , just look at the other forums .

I am also not some newbie just getting into electric R/C , been into R/C in general for 30+ years and racing for 3 so I kinda know what I am doing

I am NOT bashing Castle products as I run them in all of my 1/8th scales (Mamba Monsters) and they are rock solid in them . Heck I even tried a Mamba Monster in my SCT and guess what ? It had NONE of the problems the Mamba Max Pro had running the EXACT same motor and batteries I have been using all racing season .

Maybe something is wrong with mine ? IDK ..... But the "Slovak" as you call it is working AWESOME and yes I am very happy with it

Bashem -- If you PM me with your info, we can get you a replacement to play with -- see if the issue is with your specific unit.

Thanx!

Wasn't tryin to ruffle your feathers bashem. Just wanted to point out that you do not need an external bec to run the mmpro as your statement implied. As my previous posts indicated it would seem you do indeed have knowledge pertaining to the hobby and did eveything in your power to get the mmpro to work in your setup. My brain to mouth filter is pretty much non existant so you will have to forgive me for being so blunt. The only real solution is to run what works for your setup be it novak or whatever. Who knows we may come to find it was just your specific mmpro unit in the end. Whatever the case may be many people have had great luck while others have not. I have seen the posts as well on other forums and dealt with people personally at the track with the same issue. The people that came to me at the track let me work it out and I got all but one system working normally. All setups being slightly different I reall can't say what causes it exactly, but from my experience lightening the load on the bec has worked.

No prob , I just wanted too explain myself as the whole experience with the MMP has left a bad taste in my mouth and was very frustrating .

I have emailed Patrick back with my info so hopefully I can get this ESC swapped out for a different one and I will install it as soon as it arrives and report back .

I still think Castle's ESC's are the best all around and deffinately have the most bang for the buck though .

I feel your pain dude, I went through some teething pains with the mmm to say the least. It is frustrating but castle is a company that will hand you a pack of stride gum to vanquish that awefull taste forever. Trust me, once you get the pro to work for ya you will never look back.

I am hoping thats the case as they have never let me down before , hopefully I can get it worked out before the indoor racing starts around here ......

I was running the mm pro, with 17.5 motor....lost 3 BIG races because of laps missed. I lapped the field on most of the races, and it would give me 9th place finishes. I put in a different MMP and problem solved.
