Product Use Statements:

*Although Mamba X is waterproof, it is not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid. Always rinse the ESC and motor with clean water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. While the motor and controller may be waterproof, we suggest users confirm that the rest of their vehicle, including the batteries, servos, radio and chassis are also waterproof before exposing them to liquids of any kind.

**The cooling fan must be removed prior to driving in wet conditions. It is not waterproof.

Telemetry Link Capable: Yes
Tech Notes:
  1. Mamba X setups frequently hit 100+ amps in peaks and not all LiPos are created equal. Surge ratings should never be used to determine a pack's suitability for a brushless application. Recommended battery capacity for 1:10th and 1:8th scale vehicles is 5000mAh. We recommend using 30C continuous discharge or higher LiPo batteries (or high quality 25C batteries such as Traxxas® Power Cell).
  2. Our experience suggests using only mild gear ratios with NiMH cells. Do not attempt to use NiMH cells in extreme setups.
  3. Applying voltages higher than 25.2V will cause irreparable damage to ESC.
  4. We recommend a high-current connector designed for high-powered electric systems, rated for 70+ amps. Invest in connector sets made for high-powered electric systems such as our Castle 6.5mm Polarized Connectors, Castle 4.0mm Polarized Connectors, Traxxas® Power Connectors, or Deans® Ultra Plugs

The mamba x is my go to 1/10 ESC- I use it in crawlers like trx6 and vanquish vs410, bashers like MT10 and ryft, and racers like et410.2. Endless power and great low speed control. Super easy to program with castlelink.

Mamba X my new go to ESC
July 14, 2023
The Mamba X has become my new go to 1/10 ESC. I'm running one in several different vehicles from a street basher to Rock Crawlers and it performs beyond expectations in each application. The range of programming is a big reason for my first purchase of the Mamba X. The fit and quality is second to none. Slow speed control is amazing and all the power you need is a squeeze away. Castle creations has always had my business and will continue to in the future.

Best Crawler Esc To Date
June 6, 2019
I have been running the MX esc for well over a year now , 0 complaints, in my vaterra ascender I have roughly 40h run time, 10h on 4s with the slate 1900kv and 30h on 6s with HH puller pro 2200kv (appropriately tuned) it crawls like Butter, I have all the wheel speed I could ever want, the adjustable drag break works awesome (sanwa m12s dial)
For high powered servos I reccomend adding a castle bec, this is a very impressive esc and castle has truly outdone themselves with this one .
Cheers Matt

Mamba X and Slate combo
May 28, 2017
I bought the Mamba X and 2850kv slate motor for my Axial SMT10. I was planning on running it on 3s . So far all I've used is 2s and it's more than enough power. It's just as smooth as the brushed system but much more powerful. I was originally trying to decide between this and a Holmes Hobbies Trailmaster. I can't speak about that system but Castles ability to real time data log and a couple other key features helped in making my decision.

Love it!!
March 30, 2017
Ive got this in my Axial wraith running a 2s and it perfect! Its got all the power id ever need and can handle crawling perfectly as well! I love using the castle link because i can adjust the power curve so its slow off the line and doesn't upset the chassis too bad! I highly recommend it.

Mamba X "rocks"
December 30, 2016
I just received my Mamba X today. Looks great, very solid piece. I swapped out the Mamba Max Pro I was running in my Yeti for the new Mamba X. With the MMP I always added a capacitor pack and a BEC ... NO MORE with this puppy. I find the internal BEC more than powerful enough and you end up with a "cleaner" looking setup by eliminating the cap pack / bec ( and all the extra wiring they add ) Runs butter smooth on start up really powers my heavy yeti well. This is my first Mamba X, but I have been running 3 Mamba Monster X's all with the same excellent results. These two ESC's have become my "go to" for all 10th or 8th scale applications.
