Some interesting info in that link, too! The current ratings that you've put on various Mamba controllers are interesting...are they assuming absolute constant operation? They're down on the controllers' hobby "constant" ratings, so I'm guessing so? Also, I see that you're got a Mamba Max Pro listed there. Is that just the normal Max with a different name, or something new?...

Sorry for the questions, you must get fed up with them. Those controllers sound phenomenal!

The hobby ratings are realistic true continuous ratings -- they just assume some airflow (about 5mph airflow over the controller.)

The other ratings are with lower airflow, or still air.

The Mamba Max Pro is the next generation Mamba Max -- not released yet (reworking it in parallel with the Monster.)
Slightly lower current handling than the Mamba Max, but adds a switching BEC, up to 5S operation, fan option, better heat sink, and a 5 pin "feature" connector (that can be used for hybrid sensored/sensorless operation.)
The Mamba Max will remain in production -- mostly because some people will want the higher current capability of the Mamba Max. The Pro has slightly lower current handling because we decided to add features but keep the cost similar (fewer FETs, but better heat sink and other features.)
