mamba monster

i did it.yesterday i sent in my old mamba max esc v1 back to castle for replacment for the new mamba monster esc. my question is ,is the set up the same as the old v1? do you program it the same , and can you up grade the settings on the castle site.my old one ran find for about 2 months.started to glitch last time i used it.may be because it thermal last time and smoke a little.didnt want to take a chance with it ,so out with the old in with the new!
