Questions?? Problems calibrating my Mamba Monster ESC

Hey guys, I'm having trouble Calibrating my Mamba Monster Esc, I hold down the throttle like it says till the red light comes blinks, next your supposed to hold the brakes and it's supposed to blink yellow, however it just stays red, I'm using a Futaba 3pm mx radio and receiver

If the esc is plugged into the rcvr with correct polarity, try setting your throttle and brake endpoints are all set to between 100 and 120%. If its not calibrating at 100, increase them and re-try.

Futaba TX need to have the throttle reversed from the start, maj=ke sure you have the throttle channel reversed.

trikenut012, I have just purchased a Mamba Monster to go with a Futaba 3PM-MX transmitter, can I ask are you using PPM or HRS mode? and did you find out what you changed to get it all to work and calibrate? As I will be going throug the process when I get my xmas present.
Regards

Mark
