8S Monster is in Beta testing now.
1800Kv motor is in the pipeline -- but we are expanding the factory in China -- can't produce enough 2200 and 2650s now.
Mod 1 pinions are in stock (limited qty)
Conversion kits are in stock (limited qty)

What about the 10S monster?
Are you planning a SHV (20S+) controller for cars?

Is the 1500KV motor in the same boat as the 1800? I'd like a CC Neu for my Muggy but the 2200 really isn't ideal for it.

We are planning to port the Mamba software to the Phoenix-ICE hardware, which will allow for 12S operation on the ICE-HV controller (and datalogging of voltage, current, RPM, etc..)

Don't think at this point we will do a 12S (or 10S) specific monster -- the ICE hardware just works really well. The ICE-160HV should handle pretty much anything that you can throw at it.

With Forward, Brakes, reverse correct?

And are the current ICE controllers capable of running the Mamba software?

This is great news.

I have some 8S and 10S setups that I've been itching to put together.

Could this be something we get for Christmas?

Yep, just a firmware upgrade.

Should be.


Here's a demo by Tim Jones at IRCHA this year using a Phoenix-ICEHV-160 and a Castle Vertigo motor in a TRex 700 (about 8hp average output power, and 12hp peak...)

Holy hell, 8S brushless?? How would that even be controllable?

when?

[brushlessboy16]

So the Ice HV will have car specific firmware? sweet!


and is there any hardware changes to the Mamba monster to utilize the data logging feature?

I didn't say anything about a Mamba Monster with data logging. The Monster doesn't have the right hardware for data logging.

Patrick: I'm trying to clarify this here. The new ICE-HV controllers run the ICE Hardware now which allows for 12s operation as well as data logging. These controllers will be accepting of the Mamba software to run in car operations. With that said, the ICE hardware will still allow for datalogging in the Mamba software operation?
