The Mamba XLX2 is our next generation 1/5th scale ESC. It is replacing the widely popular Mamba XLX. The Mamba XLX has become the go-to ESC for extreme applications like speed runs and drag racing. The Mamba XLX2 continues with this tradition but takes it to a new level.
Below you will find head-to-head comparisons of the XLX vs XLX2. These are screen shots from the on-board data loggers from both ESCs; the setups were EXACTLY the same in every way with the exception of the ESCs. Note: The XLX2 did not have an external capacitor pack or aftermarket fan installed; the XLX had an aftermarket external capacitor pack and fan. Max current readings on the XLX is clipped at ~340 amps due to hardware limitations.
We believe the numbers speak for themselves.
