I think they should do away with the current mamba line, and use the ice design for all. For example.
Ice Mamba Pro
Ice Mamba Monster
Ice mamba HV

should be easy enough to do once they get the bugs out of the current setup

The car escs are named after snakes though, so what about the Black Mamba for the MMMHV- to signify its badass-ness? :yes:

Or Ice Monster... :whistle:

I think Black Mamba would be a most excellent name for sure. I can't remember which is more deadly though, the black or the green? I know that with one you know you've been bitten and you die shortly after while with the deadlier you just die. Sucks either way though.

thats going to be nasty, i cant wait to get one:intello:

I like that name, even though it reminds me of Kobe Bryant. :lol:

MonsterMambaMaxExtraLargeHighVoltageICECarVersion

:lol::lol:

+1 for Black Mamba

I was also thinking in keeping with the snake theme that you have sidewinder for the more tame controllers, Mamba for the mid range group, maybe the new guy should be the King Cobra? Or Anaconda? Please take these suggestions as tongue in cheek as they are meant. However if one of my names is chosen I expect royalties in the form of a free controller. :intello:

Most likely "Mamba Ice HV" in keeping with current naming schemes.

My vote is for the Cobra

For some reason or other I thought you would go for the Black Mamba. :lol:

Don't know where i got that idea though..................:whistle:

Sure glad I didn't place any bets on it either. :rules:

So whatever happened to "black is nice"?:na:

The trouble with the snake naming convention is that it is self-limiting. To give room for future growth, you'd have to start by calling the Mamba something more like "garden snake". :smile:

The product line needs to be split into segments. Something like the lower-end (Sidewinder), mid-range (Mamba), and upper-end (Viper). And then add numbers/letters to the end of the name for specific model and/or generation.

I just noticed you changed that:no:

lol

+1, sounds good and it's short(ish). Makes me look at the gasser in my Baja and think "Hmmmm..."

I keep seeing in the magazines on castle's ads

"Whats neXt

Soo maybe Mamba X

X Mamba for Xtra Mamba! LOL or Mamba X for Mamba Xtra! Saweet!

Still waiting on the vid! :whistle:

I still am wondering, is the Q-Base ESC the exact same as the MMP (besides solder posts) or does it have lower-rated components that allow it to only be rated for 4S?

I like the Anaconda HV power system. And the Mamba Ice HV

Saw this today. 7/19/10 firmware

New Feature: Torque control - limits the amount of torque applied to wheels during acceleration.
New Feature: Added Max Forward Throttle feature that limits the maximum power output to motor.
Addition: Added support for Mamba XL/Mamba XL HV/Hydra ICE/Hydra ICE HV with data logging.

Well, if this HV monster is coming, i am in line for one defenetly...

Where can i sing in for one:rules:?...i need it really bad !:intello:

I say call it the
Monster HIV.

Looks like there are two flavours... Although I'm not sure the MS Paint graphic will stay - LOL

If there is two flavors to this then how about the ''Mamba Xtreme'' and ''Mamba Xtreme HV''.

I have been holding off on buying a third Mamba because of this new ESC coming.

What about calling it:

Big Momma

and then

Big Momma XXXXL

:lol:

FYI The graphics I posted are NOT mine - These are Castles from the latest version of the Castle Link software... :)

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Oh My God What The Fu** BarBeCue????

Yes, great name for a brushless speed controller. Kinda like maxamps latest product, dubbed ROFLPITA....

I'm betting the new XL is the Mamba Monster with data logging added.

I need a new ESC to stop swapping my MMM from LST to E-Revo. I have been itching to get a MMM but holding off for this new ESC. Sorry for my impatience but is there any news?

Mistercrash, I have a nice used MMM if you are interested... ;)

I think Patrick said 8 weeks until production- that was a few weeks ago...

How much you guys think it will cost?

2 dallas and 23centz



to be honest i was holeing for free99

We just sent out another round of Betas controllers recently. We had one more issue we wanted to resolve...

Right now, everything looks OK -- but production is backlogged right now, so I can't be sure when they will hit the market.

I still like this one the best... :lol:

have any more betas you can send???:angel:

ditto :angel:

Great news, now we all know were getting close to having these Bad@ssed controllers in out grubby mits ! Yahoo :yipi:

Very promising! Sign me up if you need some controllers tested in the Caribbean let me know :)

Can we just call it the "Trouser Snake"? Thats exactly whats going to be affected by most of us the first time we crank the throttle. :rofl:
