What to know About the Mamba max? -
03.21.2008, 05:08 PM
Hello all, I have an Earlier version of the Monster max (yellow label) and am planning to run A Turnigy 50-55b 600kv Outrunner-direct drive. My questiong is with a fan on the ESC can i run 5s lipo?
If not, what needs to be done?

If it'll run on 5s like the earlier ones should do, then a fan and maybe a Novak power capicitor would be worthy additions to keep it cool (solder the cap across the battery leads, close to the esc as possible & in parallel > + to +, - to -).

True, but its always nice to solder on extra stuff for the hell of it :D
See what the temps do with just the fan first, then decide if you need the cap or not.

Not certain of the specific firmware # code, but if I just say 'the lastest version' which can be downloaded, then that will be the one :D

Hey BB.
It's an earlier version of the MM. I had already upgraded it with the newest firmware so you should be good to go. It should do fine on 5s, just watch those temps!!
