Phsaw! That's easy to get around. Just use two 50v batteries "in parallel" (wink wink) and then when the voltage police aren't looking, pop them in series. And, just underrate the ESC voltage-wise.

If 22xx stuff comes out I vote for MMMM - Massive Mamba Monster Max

I made a promo pic - Truth is I didn't use photoshop or any commercial software. Don't tell anyone.

Very exciting stuff there patrick!! Now I will continue the read. lol

Nice job Castle on the new additions.
Sorry been away so long.
Lack of money has kept me away.
Good to see you back!

ROFL @ Metallover!


Maybe that's what we need -- user submitted advertising!

I don't even like having to say "Mamba Monster".. makes me sound like a mumbling (or bumbling?) idiot. Not Castle's fault tho :)

I think you guys could do better on flashy naming, maybe like the NCC-1701 1717 XR4ti
Type R Limited Edition zXSVT... Beauville.

Or maybe something shorter?

Been waiting for that 1518 to come out for a long time! I have a home for one as soon as they're available, my RC8T needs more power! Can't wait to see what kind of power it lays down, eagle tree is waiting for some more testing!

RC-Monster RC8T 1515 2.5D/MMM/5s RC-M 4500mah
SC10 MMPro 13.5T 2s NeuEnery 5000mah
RC18T Mamba 25/5400kv 2s lipo + 6s NiMh

The 50V limit I'm guessing is in the lethal range for DC?

Still that's an odd regulation.

Metal: "If 22xx stuff comes out I vote for MMMM - Massive Mamba Monster Max"

I vote shorter.. "Atomic Mamba!" Yes, with the exclamation!

The photo on the box would be a no-brainer

You won't even be able to buy one without background checks.

50V lethal?? Maybe if you stabbed yourself in the heart with the wires...

CE is just over cautious... at those voltages, the current (and heat the current can generate) is much more dangerous than the voltage.

So when will we see a HV controller(s) for us car guys Patrick. I know an airplane controller can be made to work with a car software and most wanted something like the HV110. I still have my burnt HV110 here and I know it's out of warranty, but I can send it back to you if you want to use the processing board.

Never mind, I just looked at my HV110 and the processing board and the PCB under it is pretty much fried.
