The Mamba Max is supposed to have a built-in failsafe of sorts (as do most ESCs), so that if the signal is lost the ESC will remove power from the motor.
If it was noise, then it was consistent noise. From the time when I lost control of the throttle to the time when it hit my neighbor's car, the RPM of the motor was not varying, so to me it seems like it couldn't have been glitching from noise.
