Mamba Max Pro test run
Dunno if I have posted this before, but I here's a test run of my Fine Design dragster on 2s2p A123 running a 8500kv sensored motor with the Mamba Max Pro.

RE: Mamba Max Pro test run
When it goes out of the screen it sounded like it either flipped or something is dragging. What happened?
Other than that, nice vid.
I ordered a Mamba Max Pro as well as the 9000kv motor. Going to put it in one of my electric dragsters and see what happens.

Make sure you get the latest rebuildable motor from Castle, which has the updated rotor. The previous rotors had issues with snapping, due to it being overly hardend at the factory.

I am hoping since it hasn't arrived yet (just ordered 2 days ago) that I will have the latest.

RE: Mamba Max Pro test run
The sensored startup is one of the smoothest around. Sensorless startup is good, but the mamba shuffle still shows it's face once in a while. So a good sensored motor is recommended for instant starts. Kinda messes with my reaction time.
With sensorless motors I can watch the tree light and anticipate when the car will move. With sensored, I actually have to slow down my reaction before I pull the trigger. Something I haven't/can't mastered yet. Might be getting to old for it.
