Pulled the ESC from the XMaxx. The wire leading to the receiver was damaged. It must have gotten pinched when I stuffed it into the rig. Fixed the damage. Still need to operate/check it. But I’m going with the Max5 for the XMaxx.
Any updates guys I have same issue HW6max brand new inn Xmaxx I have steering and it will Blink red and never go into cali mode to set throttle !!! I’m so mad
I am literally getting this same issue with a Max6 G2 I just installed on my xmaxx. Brand new out of the box. Staying posted for a solution...I am irritated too. BEC is set on 6v to be sure not to overpower the receiver. So I know that shouldn't be it.
I've been on the phone with HW for weeks trying to trouble shoot. There offer, take $50 bucks off a new one...Think I'll go with MM8 Castle though. This thing eat up 3 receivers....URGH!!
Receiver is brand new. But I’m thinking that the ESC is burning out my receivers. This is the 3rd receiver I put in since this issue started. Once I replace the receiver the car runs for less than a pack before the blinking red light comes back.
Had the same issue with a Traxxas TQ I remote. Tried everything. Gave up. Switched to DumboRC. Now everything works.

Did you check LVC, throttle trim set to high. It can also be a bad receiver. I think there's an update for the max6 that has to be downloaded.
This thing eat through 3 receivers, I'll double check the LVC thanks for the tip...Then I'll swap to MM8 Castle set up...

I pulled it and it had a small tear in the wire going to the receiver. As suggested I am replacing it with a Max5. The max6 will find a new home
Would your receiver be bad??
