Anyone know the difference between 1.17 and 1.19?
Going by the website 1.18 was a stuff up with the LVC and 1.19 was to fix it but what is the difference in the 3?

Dear Mamba Monster Owner,

Thank you for purchasing a Mamba Monster controller. We are very excited about this new product and we sincerely feel it will surpass your expectations. We have identified a software problem with the initial build of the V2 Monsters.

WHAT: The software bug affects the low voltage cutoff. The cutoff works fine as long as the controller is operating below 1/3 throttle when the cutoff voltage is reached. If the controller is operating above 1/3 throttle, the low voltage cutoff will not function until the controller is commanded to go to a lower throttle setting. This may allow users to run their battery packs below the recommended voltage and harm their batteries. NOTE - We always recommend that you should "time" your runs with LIPO batteries such that you stop using the batteries BEFORE you hit the LVC. Think of it in terms of the airbag in your car. It's nice to have, but you are better off not having to use it.

WHO: This only affects version 1.18 software, and there are only about 50 controllers that were shipped with this version of the software. We have updated all other V2 controllers that were still in manufacturing before they were shipped. The individuals that this update directly affects will be contacted via email or postcard. However, if you are concerned that you may be one of the "lucky" few to receive the Mamba Monster with version 1.18. Please use the USB link kit included with your controller to link the controller and update it to version 1.19. Mamba Monster controllers with ver. 1.17 are NOT affected.
