Mambamax pro on Revo?
 
Will it be ok to run a Mamba max pro with a Tekin T8 on a converted Revo 3,3?

It will be ran at 5s lipo.

Gear conservatively, watch temps, and use an external BEC.

OK, so I am better off using more $ on a RX8 or MMM.

depending on what servo he uses, he will probably not need an external BEC. switching BECs do not make much heat either.

also, i think as long as you don't go crazy with the gearing, you will be fine on temps too. i've run my MMpro 1cell (no fan) in a 1/8 buggy without heat issues as long as i stayed out of tall grass. if you have a normal one that has a fan, then you should be fine.

You are right, but the MMPro BEC tends to be on the weaker side. I have several here and the ones I tested cut out when the load exceeded ~2A. Even before 2A, the voltage dropped more than I would like. A 3A external BEC would be a better choice if using the Pro on a larger scale vehicle, particularly on a MT where turning is quite high with those big tires.

As far as current-handling goes, I would rate the MMPro a little above that of a MM, but less than a MMM. Again, being in a Revo, I would still watch temps for a while to make sure it's not being stressed.

Thanks for the answers guys. I think the Revo will end op pretty heavy, as it will be build more monster than truggy like. So I just throw my Tekin combo in it, and get an MMM esc for my G4.
