Mamba Max on 5s A123

[RBMike]

I'm running 5S(1P) A123's in a buggy with the MM (modified) no problem. 2Kv Medusa & 15/46 gearing. On a 90 deg day, everything is about 130 to 140F after 6 to 7 minutes on the track.

Yeah, all you guys having no issues. The Mamba Max was not designed to run on 5S. I don't care if it works fine, it wasn't designed to run on 5S. Stop it. Don't.

If you are running on 5S, don't tell me. I don't want to know about it.

And our cars weren't designed to run on electricity either.
We have a habit of not doing what we are supposed to.

Now if we just had a CC controller that was designed for 5-6S operation.... :)
Sorry Patrick, we give enough headaches as it is.

Should say that 5s is completely experimental and not supported. You take the risk (whatever that may be) into your own hands. If you frag it don't send it back to PdC saying you were running in your rustler on 2S and you don't know what happened. Pay the generously low $50 repair fee and be honest.
