Castle Creations 1520-1650Kv 4-Pole Sensored Brushless Motor & Mamba Monster X Waterproof 8S ESC Combo

Experience higher efficiency, advanced features and improved optimisation for your stock upgrade or build with Castle's legendary brushless power. The Mamba Monster X 8S ESC paired with the 1520-1650Kv 4-pole sensored brushless motor is a perfect upgrade for 1/8, 1/7 and 1/6 scale vehicles weighing up to 18 lbs and running up to 8S LiPo. The 1520-1650Kv motor has a more compact diameter than the 1717-1650Kv, fitting into smaller spaces without chassis modifications.

The Mamba Monster X 8S utilises Castle's CRYO-DRIVE™ technology to reduce the rate at which the ESC heats up and remove heat more efficiently, enabling higher gear ratios, heavier vehicles, and longer runs. An open housing design, 40mm thermally controlled cooling fan, and forged elliptical fin heatsink maximise airflow throughout the system. The ESC is housed in a rugged CNC-machined aluminium case and potted in waterproof epoxy for all-weather durability.

Programming is available via the Castle Link USB adapter on Windows PC, or wirelessly using the B-Link™ Bluetooth™ Adapter and Castle Link app for Android or iOS. On-the-fly adjustments can be made through the Auxiliary wire once enabled in Castle Link. Data logging captures motor RPM, battery current and voltage, ESC and motor temperature, throttle input, and more in real time. Audible alerts notify of calibration issues and error conditions.

The 1520-1650Kv motor uses Castle's SmartSense™ mode to start with the motor's sensors for smooth starts and excellent torque, then transitions seamlessly to sensorless mode once the motor is spinning. QuietSense™ delivers the highest precision and most efficient startup in sensored motor design.
