SURFACE ESC: MAMBA X, 25.2V WP ESC, 8A PEAK BEC, DATALOGGING
LEGENDARY 1/10 SCALE PERFORMANCE: Trusted by RC enthusiasts for years, the Mamba X delivers smooth throttle control, brutal acceleration, and dependable Castle power for bashers, racers, crawlers, and custom builds.
WIDE 2S TO 6S LIPO COMPATIBILITY: Run anything from mild street setups to extreme high-voltage builds. Supports a huge range of 1/10 scale applications depending on gearing, vehicle weight, and motor pairing.
SMARTSENSE SENSORED TECHNOLOGY: Combines sensored smoothness at low speed with sensorless efficiency at high RPM. Ideal for crawling, precision driving, and high-speed runs.
POWERFUL 8A ADJUSTABLE BEC: Integrated high-output BEC adjustable from 5.5V to 8.0V powers demanding servos for steering authority in crawlers, heavy trucks, and aggressive driving.
FULLY PROGRAMMABLE + DATA LOGGING: Tune braking, throttle curves, punch control, drag brake, motor timing, and more using Castle Link. Review run data like voltage, temps, RPM, current draw, and throttle input.
*In 1/8th scale setups, the Mamba X is intended to be used for off-road racing in buggies weighing up to 9lbs (including batteries and ready-to-run). In these 1/8th scale racing setups, the Mamba X should be run at 4S LiPo (16.8V) max and is recommended to be paired with the 060-0062-00 Castle 1512-1800Kv Sensored Motor or 060-0093-00 CASTLE 1515-2200Kv Sensored Motor V2, with appropriate gearing only.

| Product Use Statement: |
Max recommended vehicle weight is less than 9lbs, with batteries, ready-to-run. Although Mamba X are waterproof, they are not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid. They can corrode when exposed to corrosive materials, such as salt water. 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. |
| Tech Tips: |
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). Our experience suggests using only mild gear ratios with NiMH cells. Do not attempt to use NiMH cells in extreme setups. Applying voltages higher than 25.2V will cause irreparable damage to ESC. |
