Recalibrate your esc forward reverse and neutral will solve the tx starting at half throttle. Also you can adjust throttle curve on the mamba x via castle link and adjust many other features also
I found the traxxas remote quite difficult to crawl with but I didn’t notice that until I upgraded to a dx5 rugged from spektrum the traxxas trigger is very touchy and stiff and also has a large dead zone when the dx5 rugged is very smooth and has a lighter spring and a much smaller dead zone. Definitely upgrade from the traxxas remote if you want smooth starts and just a better feel overall while driving anything not just crawlers.
What drive shafts are you running? I have a 2400kv castle and mamba X on 3S I managed to crack the ball joint on a MIP HD set. I was just doing max throttle and brake tests.
This is awesome! I’ve been trying to figure out how to reduce the total speed on my Summit since putting the mamba monster x in without having to reprogram or getting the mamba monster Bluetooth module also. I already have the traxxas one so this is a huge help!
This is great! Great to be the pioneer on this wild TRX4. I wonder if youd get more control with a spektrum transmitter and compadible receiver. I use the Dx6-I for my conversions so I can control the esc power to the motors for my rigs.
You have another more powerful tool to get good low speed control, the Castle ESC can have a custom throttle curve programed into it using the Castle link. Its super easy, you just want the curve to be very gradual at the bottom and ramp up steeply at the end. play with a few curves and see what happens, its really not too complicated.
You have a mamba x. Why don’t you use throttle control there? I have so at 3/4 gas I have 50% power and at full it’s 100%. That way I still have that power when needed cause sometimes you do need it on the fly. You don’t have time to change a dial.
Not a 2wd lmao you ain't going nowhere in snow with any type of tires, I used to use my 2wd slash until I got an arrma 4x4, I'll never touch 2wd again lol.
Why do you have to give me bad ideas lol I have an extra 3930kv motor and ESC laying around and I have a trx4 hmmmmmmm, oh and I run a different transmitter I hate the stock one that came with the trx4 my transmitter has the throttle limiter like you installed. I actually use the receiver and transmitter from a exc barrage lol I find they have better range and way more options than the stock tq transmitter and it doesn't have that ugly long receiver cable.
1900kv on 4s is nice for heavy cars like the TRX 6 you have a shit load on torque, an it is easy to control the speed. Sensored Systems are nice. but you have a too high KV rating for this KV you must programm the esc in Castle link.
I think that ESC even has a crawler mode that applies the brake when you let off, my friend has the same ESC and we accidentally set it in this mode once lol.
Nah get 4000kv or higher for a 10th scale for high speeds I run a 5200kv and on 3s can do 75+ in my slash 2wd and 65 in my granite 4x4, the lower kv motors are for like 8th and 6th scale, the little 18th scale brushless motors are like 7000kv.
So I just purchased the mama X and the 1415 2400kv I bought it for my Wraith I'm running a Mamba Max and a Tekin pro4 HD 3300kv in it now my local hobby shop only had the 2400 KV I was wanting something a little bit higher KV I'm wanting the best of both worlds crawling and little bit of speed can somebody tell me Should I stick with the 2400 KV or should I take it back and wait for 3300 any comments I'd appreciate it
I appreciate all your videos. You don’t have to reply to any of my comments, make this your last one:) Put me on your don’t answer list. Get some rest too.
Sorry not trying to be a know it all and believe me i have rewatched this video ten times to be sure the esc is made for 2 to 6s the motor is rated for 2s to 3s max your basically over powered by 3s
I quit my job and made $100,000 on ebay last year. See how you can too! kevin-talbot.teachable.com/p/kev-s-ebay-course
Put 8s on your TRX 4
Kev can u shout me out plz I’ve been hear since 100 subs
KEV your instructions on TQI Bluetooth are much better than what Traxxas puts out!
Recalibrate your esc forward reverse and neutral will solve the tx starting at half throttle. Also you can adjust throttle curve on the mamba x via castle link and adjust many other features also
You might be better adjusting the throttle sensitivity for crawling instead of nappy mode?
I've seen the video where you built the terquois chevy and the fan can be put in a box on th bed or in the top of the cab
I have the same ESC and motor in my Ecto.
Love it using a 3s.
keep them coming love your vids been watching a while and seen this channel grow keep up the good work !!!!!!!!

Ive had the traxxas link for my stampede for ages, but not used it much other than for reducing braking

Maybe but I wanna keep with the traxxas radios because of tsm, self right, its want the traxxas come with, I like the app etc
totally understand I still havent tried the blue tooth app but soon I will maybe on my new 8s maxx :-)
wouldn't it be better to turn down the power using the castle link? program the ESC for lower power on crawler mode...

humboldtef or get rid of the shitty traxxas radio and rx, or both
Nice truck!
How do you stay warm in your shop
Cool vid. Still prefer the Land Rover shell though! ;)
I have the land rover and within a month I put a different body on it, the top heavy tendencies arent worth it at all
I finally got a trx4 Blazer okay, what system is this and is this the same one with the aux port to change Drive modes in low range?
Mamba x esc and 6s u don’t burn anything :0 ?
Where it all began.
Awesome video buddy 👊 is that a castle motor as well? I'm thinking of buying that ESC and putting it in my Apex touring car, what do you think sir 👊🍻

Great video keep going man 👍
love your vids, dude🤙😆
What works better for snow: Paddles or chains? My friend just got a 2wd Slash and snows starting to hit so I'm curious
I have no idea dude but I'm guessing paddles
Kevin Talbot k thanks!
Not a 2wd lmao you ain't going nowhere in snow with any type of tires, I used to use my 2wd slash until I got an arrma 4x4, I'll never touch 2wd again lol.
So if i buy the Bluetooth piece to go in my transmitter i can do stuff like that and dont need any more tellamentry crap
Your awesome 😎
Isnt the castle 3800kv only rated at max 3s
“Controlled” and “6s Mamba X” does not feel right in the same sentence lmao
Why don't you run it on sensored?
Amistry20 it is sensored. If it wasn't, it wouldn't be able to do the low speed crawl
he isnt using sensor wire and it still jumps at start, he can crawl because of low gear
Can you do the same mode for Traxxas x maxx ????
You could set some expo on the throttle.
Floureon 2800 mah 4s lipo are good for a xmaxx?? and how much run time is it gives you???
Sami Montas 2800 is not enough! You need a least a 5000 mah battery
Tristan thx 👍

Turn the torque down on the speed control Castle has a castle link I'm quite sure you're familiar with it
I think that ESC even has a crawler mode that applies the brake when you let off, my friend has the same ESC and we accidentally set it in this mode once lol.
Is 2000 kv motor fast and good for stock motor 1/10 scael
Nah get 4000kv or higher for a 10th scale for high speeds I run a 5200kv and on 3s can do 75+ in my slash 2wd and 65 in my granite 4x4, the lower kv motors are for like 8th and 6th scale, the little 18th scale brushless motors are like 7000kv.
Unless you plan on running 4 or 6s then that's when those low kv motors shine but on 2 or 3s do 4000kv or higher
what's it like on 4s
how about gear the low range mode hugely low range
thank yo so much! nice video👍
You should keep it the teal color
So I just purchased the mama X and the 1415 2400kv I bought it for my Wraith I'm running a Mamba Max and a Tekin pro4 HD 3300kv in it now my local hobby shop only had the 2400 KV I was wanting something a little bit higher KV I'm wanting the best of both worlds crawling and little bit of speed can somebody tell me Should I stick with the 2400 KV or should I take it back and wait for 3300 any comments I'd appreciate it
That is faster then my toy grade rc crawler🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bought the Bluetooth link but it will not connect to my phone or tablet, so not impressed to be honest.
what kind of temps? i didnt think that motor was rated over 3s
Eric Bostick it's not
its rated 4s but temps are very low even on 6s
Loce it.looks good. I'm only on hobbywing 4s setup even then way too much power? Never! Lol
Only 4s lol this hobby is crazy I love it
I want that same esc on my rusty i alredy have the motor
Pair it with a hobbywing that's the best combo castle motor hobbywing esc the castle ESCs are too jittery at low throttle
I appreciate all your videos. You don’t have to reply to any of my comments, make this your last one:) Put me on your don’t answer list. Get some rest too.
Sorry not trying to be a know it all and believe me i have rewatched this video ten times to be sure the esc is made for 2 to 6s the motor is rated for 2s to 3s max your basically over powered by 3s
yep!
Hey bro
👍👍👍
If you gear it down some you might get something better out of it
If it isn't destroyed
I want to see this thing with drift tires on 6s
Another great video. I sent you a message on your Facebook account Kev!
