The Mamba Monster X takes performance to new heights, surpassing the capabilities of the Monster 2. One standout feature is the addition of a programmable Auxiliary Wire, enabling users to make real-time adjustments to various settings like torque control and reverse enable/disable. With this new Auxiliary Wire, you can fine-tune your Monster X ESC's performance directly from your compatible transmitter using an auxiliary channel on your receiver. Additionally, the Monster X introduces updated Audible Alerts that promptly notify drivers of potential calibration issues and error conditions, aiding in problem diagnosis while out in the field. Moreover, the ESC can be configured to support sensored brushless motors alongside sensorless and brushed motors.

The Mamba Monster X is a powerful controller designed for 1:8th scale and Monster trucks, capable of handling 2S to 6S LiPo batteries. It features an impressive 8 amp peak BEC and, best of all, it's waterproof*, allowing you to confidently drive your vehicle through morning dew, soggy snow, or muddy trails. It's an ideal upgrade for 1:8 scale buggies, truggies, on-road vehicles, as well as 1:10 scale monster trucks weighing up to 15 lbs. The ESC also comes equipped with a highly efficient, removable 30mm cooling fan to ensure optimal performance.

Notable features of the Mamba Monster X include:
• Data logging capability to capture and record performance data from your vehicle
• Waterproof design, allowing for operation in any weather conditions
• Factory-installed and easily removable 30mm cooling fan
• Convenient transmitter programming for six commonly adjustable settings
• Simple ESC programming and updates via Castle Link USB and the freely downloadable Castle-Link Windows™ program
• Optional smartphone-based programming using the B-LINK™ Bluetooth Adapter (sold separately) and Castle Link app available on 
  Google Play or the Apple App Store
• Telemetry ready and compatible with the 010-0152-00 Telemetry Link for Futaba S.Bus2 and Futaba T4PX and T7PX transmitters
• Auxiliary Wire Functionality for on-the-fly adjustments such as Max Power and Max Brake
• Audible Alerts to notify you of potential calibration issues and error conditions.

Features:
Data Logging:
The Mamba Monster X offers data logging capability, allowing you to capture and record performance data from your recent runs. This valuable data can be downloaded using the Castle Link USB programmer. To conveniently access both wires with a single Castle Link connection, you can utilize the Quick Connect Duo (sold separately). By analyzing this data, you can make adjustments to the ESC to optimize performance and maximize battery life.

Auxiliary Functionality:
With the addition of a programmable AUX wire, the Mamba Monster X enables on-the-go adjustments to various settings such as torque control and maximum throttle. You can fine-tune the ESC's performance directly from your transmitter using an auxiliary channel on the receiver. By default, the AUX wire function is disabled, but it can be programmed via Castle Link or the Castle Link iOS App. Once programmed, you can conveniently adjust the settings on-the-go from a compatible transmitter

Programmability:
The Mamba Monster X offers a fully programmable feature set through the Castle Link USB adapter. A coupon for a free Castle Link adapter is included in the package. You can use the freely downloadable Castle Link Windows software or the Castle Link iOS App, along with a B-LINK Bluetooth Adapter, to access and modify the ESC's settings. While most settings are accessible through Castle Link, a subset of options can also be manually programmed using the transmitter stick.

Firmware Updates:
Users of the Mamba Monster X receive free access to all firmware updates, including additional feature sets, through the Castle Link USB Programming Kit. Stay up to date with the latest enhancements and improvements for your ESC. Check for available software versions specifically designed for the Mamba Monster X.

Power System Alerts:
The Mamba Monster X features updated Audible Alerts that notify you of potential issues with calibrations and error conditions. These alerts serve as valuable tools to diagnose problems while you're out in the field. Stay informed and address any concerns promptly. Refer to the complete list of audible alerts for detailed information.

Telemetry Capable:
The Mamba Monster X is telemetry ready, allowing owners of Futaba T4PX Transmitters to utilize the Castle Creations Telemetry Link for S.BUS2. With this feature, you can monitor real-time data such as ESC temperature, voltages, and RPM. Having access to this information ensures performance advantages and eliminates the uncertainties that RC enthusiasts may encounter. Telemetry data adds an extra layer of protection and can enhance overall performance.

Product Use Statements:      
*Although Mamba Monster X and Castle brushless motors are waterproof, they are not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid. They can corrode   when exposed to corrosive materials, such as salt water. 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. 

Application Guidelines: Intended for up to 6S (25.2 Volt) operation in vehicles weighing less than 15 lbs, with batteries, 
ready-to-run. Not recommended for use in high speed 1/8th and larger applications (IE Arrma Infraction and Limitless, Traxxas XO-1)

Recommended Motors:
• Castle 1512 1800/2650Kv: Max Cells: 4S Lipo or 12 NiMH (1512-1800, 1512-2650)
• Castle 1515 2200Kv V2: Max Cells: 6S Lipo or 16 NiMH (1515-2200 V2)

• Max. Recommended Vehicle Weight: Less than 15 lbs, with batteries, ready-to-run with 2200kv motor; no more than 9 lbs 
  with 1800/2650kv motor

  Windows software, or the Castle Link iOS or Android App and a B-LINK Bluetooth Adapter (sold separately).

Tech Notes:    
1. Mamba Monster 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 1:8th 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 CCBULLET 6.5mm, Castle 6.5mm Polarized Connectors, Traxxas® Power 
  Connectors, FlightPower Star™ Plug, or Deans® Ultra Plugs
