Description

FLEXIBILITY, DEPENDABILITY, AND PERFORMANCE
At Castle, we set out to encompass three core principles in the design of a new ESC tailored to the modern RC enthusiast: FLEXIBILITY, DEPENDABILITY, and PERFORMANCE. These principles serve as the bedrock of the Mamba X design and act as the driving forces behind this feature-rich controller.

The Mamba X offers exceptional adaptability, capable of energizing an extensive array of applications, spanning from 2S to 6S, and accommodating vehicles ranging from 1/10th scale to 1/8th scale*. Whether you're engaged in track racing with your 2wd buggy, navigating through mud puddles with your SCT or monster truck, or tackling an intense crawling adventure, this controller sets a new benchmark. Combine it with a Castle 4-POLE 12-SLOT SENSORED MOTOR for precise throttle management and silky-smooth launches!

ESCs encounter a challenging existence - enduring high-impact landings, unforeseen collisions, and occasional encounters with water. As RC enthusiasts themselves, Castle's engineers comprehend these challenges and have meticulously designed the Mamba X to not only withstand such scenarios but to thrive in them. It is encased in a robust CNC-machined aluminum housing and sealed with waterproof epoxy. This dual-layer protection not only safeguards the electronic components but also ensures efficient dissipation of any generated heat within the controller.

The Mamba X incorporates a robust 8A adjustable BEC into a high-performance speed controller capable of propelling the most extreme 1/10th scale setups and 1/8th race buggies. Smart-Sense™ technology empowers you to take advantage of smooth, cog-free, and predictable sensored starts, while improved throttle response keeps you ahead of the competition.

The Mamba X is proudly conceived and crafted in Olathe, Kansas, and is backed by Castle Creations’ 1-year warranty and unparalleled 'make-it-right' customer support. Reach out to us via phone, email, or visit our storefront – we're here to assist you.

Product Use Statements:

*Although Mamba X is waterproof, it is not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid. T Always rinse the ESC and motor with clean water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. While the motor and controller may be waterproof, we suggest users confirm that the rest of their vehicle, including the batteries, servos, radio and chassis are also waterproof before exposing them to liquids of any kind.

**The cooling fan must be removed prior to driving in wet conditions. It is not waterproof.

Max. Recommended Vehicle Weight: Less than 9lbs, with batteries, ready-to-run with included 1406 - 3800kv motor in low speed crawlers; 5lbs maximum for more aggressive setups like rock racing and extended hill climbing

Telemetry Link Capable: Yes
Tech Notes:
  1. Mamba X setups frequently hit 100+ amps in peaks and not all LiPos are created equal. Surge ratings should never be used to determine a pack's suitability for a brushless application. Recommended battery capacity for 1:8th scale vehicles is 5000mAh. We recommend using 30C continuous discharge or higher LiPo batteries (or high quality 25C batteries such as Traxxas® Power Cell).
  2. Our experience suggests using only mild gear ratios with NiMH cells. Do not attempt to use NiMH cells in extreme setups.
  3. Applying voltages higher than 25.2V will cause irreparable damage to ESC.
  4. We recommend a high-current connector designed for high-powered electric systems, rated for 70+ amps. Invest in connector sets made for high-powered electric systems such as our Castle 6.5mm Polarized ConnectorsCastle 4.0mm Polarized Connectors, Traxxas® Power Connectors, or Deans® Ultra Plugs.

Tech Notes:

Running modes: SMARTSENSE™, Sensored, Sensorless with Castle sensored capable ESCs.

Water Resistant Design: The sensor board is coated with silicone conformal coating to protect the sensors from moisture. The sensor connections are not water resistant; water can cause signal loss which could result in loss of sensored capabilities. Castle recommended applying dielectric grease to the outside of the sensor wire connections after installation of the wire. Routine maintenance is recommended after running in wet conditions. Please refer to this document for running and maintaining motors in wet environments.
