The MAMBA Monster X 8S with 2028-800KV Brushless sensored motor is ready to handle any drivable car with a weight of up to 11 kg and with a capacity of up to 8S LiPo. Designed for the most extreme RC cars and because of the sensor system, this combo also has enough torque at the low end of the RPM scale.
This combo gives you absolute power that really brings your RC car to life. The MAMBA Monster X 8S uses Castle's groundbreaking CRYO-DRIVE™ technology. This technique makes the ESC less hot and it can maintain its performance even better. These software enhancements work in parallel with a unique open case design to allow greater focused airflow to cool critical components. With the integration of a 40mm cooling fan and an all-aluminium heatsink, the design maximizes airflow throughout the system, taking thermal performance to a whole new level. High performance demands high quality and this ESC was designed with durability in mind. Built around a robust aluminum housing, the epoxy potting guarantees protection around the circuits and allows for all-weather use. Mamba Monster X 8S is a workhorse and will dominate in the toughest conditions. You can easily optimize the ESC for all driving conditions, from rough terrain to slippery pavement to the hazards of rocks and gravel. Create, save and download installation profiles through the Castle Link Programming Suite on your Windows™ PC, or wirelessly with the convenience of the new B-Link™ Bluetooth™ adapter and Castle Link app for Android or iOS. Additional tuning flexibility awaits with on-the-fly adjustments of your transmitter via the setup wire. Simply connect the white signal wire to an open radio channel and enable the feature in Castle Link by selecting which feature you want to use. Access programming parameters such as Torque Control, Max Brake or Rock Race Mode.
Optimize your vehicle for any racing or bashing application you can imagine! Coupled with the recently updated Castle 2028-800KV, users with heavy, high-speed installations will experience controllable low range without sacrificing power, punch or speed. The SmartSense™ mode uses the engine's sensors to start the engine for a smooth start, excellent torque and low-speed drivability. Once the motor is running, it transitions seamlessly into Castle's ultra-efficient sensorless mode. You put more power to the ground where it should be, instead of wasting it through raw heat and revs.
No challenge is too big for the MAMBA Monster X 8S and it is ready to test the limits of your R/C car or monster truck.
