About the Brushless Combo
Smoother Throttle Control
The inclusion of Castle Creations' SmartSense™ technology ensures smooth, cog-free starts and better low-speed drivability. This advanced technology uses the motor’s sensors at startup and then seamlessly transitions to a sensorless mode, optimizing performance and efficiency throughout the entire run.
Durable, Waterproof ESC
The Mamba Monster X ESC is housed in a durable, injection-molded case and is potted in waterproof epoxy, protecting the electronics even in harsh environments. With adjustable BEC settings and the ability to program through Castle Link or an optional Bluetooth adapter, this ESC is designed for flexibility and convenience.
Enhanced Motor Design
The redesigned 1512-2650Kv V2 motor features upgraded stator and rotor assemblies, resulting in improved magnetic flux, reduced temperatures, and smoother overall operation. These enhancements lead to more efficient performance and extended run times, allowing your vehicle to go the extra mile with confidence.

*Tech Note: Mamba Monster 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.
**Tech Note: 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.
