hobbywing ezrun 150A vs Mamba monster

[jzemaxx]

Using a DX 2.0. The radio was setup for the MMM originally so the endpoints are setup fot it. The HW I set it up using the same endpoint going through their procedure.

I've heard of others having similar results. They loose some speed with the Mamba Monster.

Wondering why that is....


Also he has ran the setup all weekend and still running awesome and cool with even more aggressive gearing. No dead ESC yet due to (cheap lipo's ) either.

The only thing I can think of is that even at full tilt, the MMM isn't sending the full PWM signal to the motors. It can't be voltage drop or there would be a ton of heat on the ESC. Don't know if this was mentioned, but you should reclaibrate your radio to the ESC each time is is swapped. It's possible that the MMM isn't seeing the full throttle it expects at WOT, so it's really running at 95% instead of 100%. When calibrating a radio, I set the EPA to 100%, calibrate the ESC/radio, then boost the EPA to ~110% to ensure the ESC gets to full throttle and is unaffected by some throttle potentiometer "drift".

jz, BrianG might be right on this one, but I've heard of people saying the Mamba Max was also faster then the Mamba Monster (Not sure if it was here or another forum) which is strange as they both share the same software. My only guess might be the different brainboard might be taking something away from the MMM.

My mistake. It was the thread asheck made, but it's not the only ESC that has shown the same results.
