Overview
The Mamba Micro X Crawler edition is Castle's latest offering for the crawling crowd. The 1406-2280kv sensored brushless motor is paired with the lightweight, small footprint Mamba Micro X ESC. This combo is ideal for low-speed crawling or trail running in vehicles weighing up to 8 lbs on 2S or 3S; it can also be used in slightly more aggressive setups like rock racing and extended hill climbing on vehicles up to 4 lbs. If you're looking for a more aggressive setup in a heavier rig, like rock racing and extended hill climbing, Castle recommends the Mamba X ESC with the same motor. The ESC comes with V2.02 firmware enhanced for rock crawling and sensored operation. Use of an external BEC is recommended if running a high power or digital servo.
This Special Edition of the Mamba Micro X includes solder posts with 16 AWG wire for the motor connection, plus the matching 4mm female bullets to pair with the included 1406-2280kv sensored brushless motor.
Note
Although the Mamba Micro X is waterproof, it is not intended for operation while completely submerged in liquid. Always rinse the ESC with clean water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. The cooling fan must be removed prior to driving in wet conditions.
