Firmware Revision History - Mamba

Release Notes
Version Number Type Release Date File Size Release Notes
1.21 Beta 05/07/09 N/A
  • Added ability to change the 'Auto-Lipo' cutoff voltages
  • Added ability to turn off the power-on reminder beep
  • Improved low speed operation, detects and escapes cogging better
  • Added ability to reverse motor direction by Castle Link software
  • Added Mamba Max Pro software
  • Bug fix: Rare instance where throttle was applied and controller would stay in idle
  • Bug fix: Audible power pulse in transition from throttle to drag brake
1.20 Final 10/21/08 N/A
  • Added a check for over-temperature condition (If unit over-temps it must cool down before restarting)
  • Added an alert for the user that an over-temperature situation has occurred. The controller will now flash the RED and YELLOW LEDs. Please consider changing your gear ratio or reducing the number of cells in order to prevent the controller from being stressed to a thermal shut down.
  • Added an alert for the user that that a low voltage situation has occurred. The controller will now flash the GREEN and YELLOW LEDs. Running your controller to low voltage cutoff may be hard on your batteries.
  • Mamba Monster starting parameters modified to resolve some premature failures.
  • Fixed bug that caused excessive current-draw during beeping. Under some circumstances this bug could lead to premature failure of Mamba Monster controllers.
1.19 Final 08/15/08 N/A
1.17 Final 01/22/08 N/A
  • Force a full re-arm after manual programming
  • Minor bug: Loading and saving programming information to a file did not properly update calibration data
  • Added tone that repeats every ~20 seconds to let user know a battery is plugged in
1.16 Beta 01/21/08 N/A
  • New start algorithm vastly improves cogging, rolling backwards starts, and general throttle feel.
  • Added Throttle Dead Band adjustment
  • Added Arming Time adjustment. This is used so that spread spectrum receivers have time to synch before the unit becomes armed.
  • Added brushed motor support. See wiring diagram. NOTE! Ensure that the proper mode is selected on the ESC for your motor wiring, failure to do so will result in controller damage, and will NOT be covered under warranty!
  • Added calibration information to Castle Link display
1.06b Beta 01/07/08 N/A
  • Software updated to work with the new hardware design of the Mamba-25
1.04b Beta 01/12/06 N/A
  • Changed stick programming to match instructions
  • Fixed bug, unit would chime auto-lipo beeps even when auto-lipo was not enabled
1.03b Beta 11/30/05 N/A
  • Significantly Improved startup and low
  • RPM operation
  • Eliminated cogging in most setups
  • Added Drag Brake option with full variability
  • Added Punch Control to decrease off the line punch to aid in controllability
  • Separated brake and reverse throttle strength
  • Added ability to set brake and reverse throttle strength to any value between 0% and 100%
