Refer to the included Castle Driver’s Ed Guide instruction
manual for full speed control operation details.
The Castle Creations Mamba Monster Extreme speed control
should not need reprogramming with normal use.
However, if
you install a different radio system in your model, or change the
transmitter’s throttle-neutral setting from 50/50 to 70/30, you will
need to reprogram the speed control. Follow these instructions to
reprogram the speed control:
1. Install the batteries of your choice in the battery compartment,
and plug the batteries into the speed control.
2. Switch on your transmitter.
3. Hold full throttle while you switch on the Mamba Monster
Extreme controller. After a few seconds, you will hear multiple
tones and the RED LED will shine.
4. Hold full brake. After a few seconds, you will hear multiple tones
and the YELLOW LED will shine.
5. Release the trigger to the neutral position. After a few seconds,
you will hear multiple tones and ALL THE LEDs will shine.
6. Wait a few more seconds for the speed control to ‘arm,’ indicated
by a double-tone. You are now ready to drive.
Disconnect Batteries After Use
Warning: Risk of Fire!
Always disconnect the batteries
from the speed control when you are finished using
your vehicle.
The switch on the speed control only shuts
off power to the receiver and servos. The speed control continues
to draw power as long as it is plugged in and may over-discharge
your batteries if they are left connected to the speed control. Over-
discharging your batteries can cause the LiPo batteries to “puff,”
damaging them permanently. Never charge a swollen or puffed
battery pack as this can cause a fire that can lead to property damage
and/or personal injury or death.
