Ever see anything like this???
I bought a T4 from a guy for my grandson and he had this Mamba Max set up like this. All three motor wires were on the minus side of a money motor and the red wire(s) were connected to the plus side. This thing ran for a while then died. I pulled this Mamab out and put a Traxxas ESC in and the motor ran slow then quit. I think right now the motor is burned out. I put in a new money motor with that Traxxas ESC and it runs just fine... very fast too.. Looks like this ESC is for a brushless setup. I installed the software and plugged the mamba max in to the usb port but it doesn't see it. Is this thing junk too?

Yeah, I believe that's how they are wired for a brushed motor, max power mode without reverse. It is intended primarily for non sensored brushless motors. Suggest you download the manual from the castle creations site.
