Castle Creations Mamba Monster maxx ready for release

[lutach]

Patrick,

Have you tried the BSC082N10? Would it be possible to make a 12S Monster Max. I just need an HV from a company in the USA. Please don't make me start begging or sign my soul for one . I know this isn't much, but a few people want a 12S or maybe more for car use: http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10609.

Yeah, we started with the BSC082N10 about a year ago on the SHV design. Found it had the same issues (even worse actually) as the BSC079

But that's OK, the BSC118N10 works fine, and handles almost as much current as the other two.

Now, a 12S controller only needs a 60V FET, not 100V.

One possibility is that I'm working on the 60V (12s) Phoenix-ICE controller line right now, and it will have the hardware support for Mamba type software (the current Phoenix-HV does not have similar hardware to the Mamba line.)

Patrick

Sounds good! I will test it to the limits. Mine is going in a 15 pound Savage X with a 1527 1D motor. I actually bought 2 Monsters because I am going to torture the first into failure. Man, what a great time to be in RC!

Ok. The Phoenix-ICE sounds good. Will the SHV support the Mamba software as well. I just heard that my F1 will be in the next shipment to the US and I will use my 2 10S1P A123 and my 2 10S1P Bosch packs with it and I would like to use them for this F1.

Edit: I only mentioned the 100V mainly because I haven't seen a 60V in that package.

Awesome rant Pat, a little touch of the industry fluff there.

So, a Mamba-ICE would just be a matter of programming...SWEET!
