is there any way to run a sensored motor on a the mamba? I might be getting a xxx4 with a burnt up esc(its the vector 5.5) and I like the price and adjustability of the mamba. If not I will probably go for a MM with the 6900 on 2s.

MMs rule the electric world.

Ive run the Velocity 5.5r with the MM and it ran nicely but had some issues starting up. I always had to give it a little nudge to get it started.

BPP usually has free shipping. I would pay a little more and get one from BPP. When you order from Fine Design, you never know what you might get, when you might get it...If you'll get anything at all.

B-P-P hasn't lowered the price on their site but Troy emailed me back saying he "would be happy to beat it at 104.95. Just confirm and we will get you setup." I swore last week I would stop buying on impulse [:@]

The best fan to get is the Novak 30mm clear fan. Its a direct fit onto the heatsink and it puts out plenty of airflow.

Just use the right settings and run a fan over the heatsink and it'll work fine.
