Castle Creations 1520 vs 1717?

Ah, ok, thanks a lot. This is why I'm worried about it, though; http://rc-monster.org/forum/showthread.php?t=19315

He burned up the MMM ESC with the 1527

But, I'm going to gear it for 35-40mph or so at first. And perhaps go faster if it handles that easily.

So, I guess I'll buy the 1527 with the Mamba Monster -- I can't get ahold of the 1524 anywhere.

This guys use a 1517/1D 2300Kv, in 6S on a small track !!! For your information the 1515/1D is rated for 4100Kv...
1D widings requieres a looooot of current at startup compare to 1Y, more over using it in 6S generate even more current spikes..
The 1527/1Y is around 1000Kv, 1524/1Y 1360Kv so if you dont gear your truck for 80mph it would be OK. Don't hesitate to ask the castle support if the MM can support the 1527. You will probably same kind of response, small Kv and 6S with correct gearing.
