Hey Patrick, can you please confirm the Mamba Monster bullets and wires? What exactly will it come with on this first run? I already soldered 5.5mm connectors on my Neu 1515.

This phoenix-ice sounds promising, it would make 5th scale conversions a little more realistic given you can put car software in it. Any guesses as to the ballpark price on this phoenix-ice?

I believe we will have the Neu style motors in about six weeks, but I'm not 100% positive. I'm going to visit our factory in China on May 1st, and I'll be back May 8th. I'll have a better idea of when the motors will be available when I get back.

Patrick

that is great news. also can you let me know if you will be doing conversion for the hyper 8.5 or hyper 9? thanks

I believe this is how it will be (It is Saturday, so I don't have the build instructions in front of me -- this is from memory.)

There will be a Castle Link included free with every Monster Max ESC - - it is a new version, just looks a little different than the current version (black PCB, immersion gold finish with cool new Castle Logo.)

We will be using 10ga wires for the power side, and 10ga wires for the motor side with 6.5mm wire bullets installed. Motor side bullets will be included.

Lemme know if I missed anything!

So the monster will include:
- Monster Max
- Castle Link (new)
- Battery Wires without connectors
- Motor wires with bullets on the wires and 2 bullets by themselves to put on the motor to connect the motor to the bullets on the wire of the esc?

I ordered a castle link with my esc as well as 2 sets of plugs. It looks like I ain't going to be needing those.

Patrick without quoting the last 6 or 7 posts you made, I'd like to say "right on!!!!:yipi:" it is so cool to see this kind of technical goodness:rules: being put into a public forum:yes:. I am constantly impressed with Castle, and I wouln't even consider spending my hard earned play money with a lesser company:no:.

The other thing I just cought was that your wife doesn't care for the smilies:tongue: that means you are going on the forums at home?!? Awsome, you tollerate our whining about "when?, when?, what?, when? why not? how come?":lol: and still show up on your personal time!:surprised:

YOU ROCK!!!! :yes:

One question, are the pre-sales getting the volume you need? I want to see Castle suceed big time (especially on the surface side), I hope it proves very fruitful. I'll be ordering the "package deal" A.S.A.P. so if you come back from China with some samples PM me hahahahaa. Just kidding (well on the other hand:whistle:)

With as much juice as we're talking about, do you guys think that 35A PowerPole/Sermos/Anderson connectors will be sufficient for the batteries? That's what I use on everything, and they appear to be doing the job so far.

Thoughts?

seeing as they have put the 6.5mm connectors on and said they will handle 200A MAX then im not sure if the power poles will handle more than say, 50A. if your using powerful batteries, this may be a place where it heats up , and reducing perfomance.

All brushless motors use 3 wires. Three wires from the ESC to the motor.

lol, my bad, big day at work :sleep:

ravin 04.29.2008 06:37 PM

fyi
Sorry guys, Joe was misinformed. The MMM has a switching BEC, but NOT the same design as the Castle BEC. It is fixed 6.0V output, and isn't adjustable.

Sorry for the confusion!

Patrick
