Wiskybilt is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Mammoth, what to do with this junk yard find?

Got home to a charged batt. Installed it and read through the manual I downloaded. The bed goes up and down now, but sometimes it won't. I think, operator error. I tried adjusting the EPA on the steering to 60% and it seemed to work for a while. The batt is old and the steering doesn't work as well at 10.9v. Plus, I'm not sure if it has to go backwards prior to dump or not.

Joe, thanks for the configuration help.

Exclusive, thanks for the offer on the help.

I'm hoping to use the stock setup on this for now. Something my grandsons and I can play with. We have a cheap 27 MHz boat and a 2x4 scorpion. Boat is new cheapo from Target, Scorpion is used and needs swing arm tabs/brackets replaced. If I can fix the scorpion I might just change to this same controller. Or a 4 channel in the same brand.
I really appreciate everyone's input. I'm just getting started in this hobby, and it can get confusing just reading all the threads.

10.9v? These models are suppose to run on 6cell 7.2v (8.4v fully charged)
