hi friends,

what is this

web says, over voltage

iamahuman

Is this the Brushless Edition or brushed?

If it's brushed, check his out.



If it's the brushless, take a look at Castle's page for the MMM to identify the code.

Hi,

Facing the blinking issue when we connect the batteries

Manual says this means over voltage.

But my NIMH battery is charging till 9.6 V only, which i think is normal.

So what could be the cause

it is nimh with Brushed setup

we used some WD-40 to temporarily solve this issue. The button is stuck for some unknown quality issue

but i comes back again.

I forgot about those problems. Traxxas ESCs are known to have such problems. Glad you got it fixed, albeit temporarily.

can you suggest some brushed ESC from other vendors.

If you're upgrading, you might as well go brushless.
