Default Problem with: 4PK--MM pro--Servos not functioning correctly.

Hi!
I try to put this in so few words as possible.

I have some issues with servos not functioning correctly with my Castle Mambamax Pro ESC.
I have an Futaba 4PK controller and i have tried Savöx and ino-lab servos and they doesnt work correctly when i steer, with the Savöx servo the red led on the receiver start blink and the ino-lab wont centrate correctly, i did try my BLS451 servo from my racecar and it functioned perfect. i have tried the two settings on the transmitter for the servos "general" and "bls digi" modes without any difference.

I also tried all theese servos in my race car with the same receiver but with my LRP SXX ESC instead and all the servos works flawless!

I need some help on this issue, i have also tried another Mambamax Pro without succes.

Happy for answers.

are you in HRS mode? this mode does not work with analog servos

try ppm mode if that is the case

or

up the voltage in the MM using castle link to 6.4v
also IIRC some other setting in there has something about high amp draw servos

/\ Agreed

Up the BEC power with a Castlelink.

Hi and thanks for the replies.

Both servos are digital and works fine with another ESC.

I have tried 6.0Volt on the BEC and the BLS works but not the others.

I will do some more testing tomorrow.
