This is a mail that castle creations wrote me on yestarday answering my questions about MM:

"The stuff about a change in the Mamba Max that makes it not work with over a 4s pack is not true. It has not been changed and it has always been the case that if you plug in a 5s pack there is a good chance that the ESC will quit working and be damaged. Some will withstand this and work OK on 5s. Either way they are out of warranty. There is no check that makes them not work on a 4s pack. Be careful with technical details presented as fact on discussion groups. The person that started this rumor has no contact with us and if we made a change like this, we would let people know. We do say that if the Mamba Max is used with 4s it is out of warranty but this is not an ESC
limit, 4s will destroy our high Kv motors. The ESC is actually OK on 4s, but
still out of warranty."
