Would you want to wait at least 30 days (15 days shipping time each way) for a replacement after 20 minutes of run time?

Please note that this is (so far) a MINOR issue -- we have had 6 failures total out of 1000 pieces shipped.

Who are 6 failures total out of 1000 pieces?
1.DickyT
2.Hootie7159
3.???
4.???
5.???
6.???

What should they do if they are 6 failures total out of 1000 pieces?
What will CC response with 6 failures,and if they're international orders?

Maybe it's just me but it seems that the "pop" is smaller on the Mamba Monster than the Max. On 6s I was expecting something big but hardly noticed it.

I noticed it smaller too on 5s than the 7 runs had on my quark before it went crispy.

Surely there not all bad as Castle are sending out replacements to the 6 people that have had failures when the receive the call so if Castle was really worried they would't worry about sending a replacement ASAP

So, i'm understanding that this is just a bunch of bullspit and i can run my Maxamps with the MMM? The Maxamps is the only battery i have and can't afford the Monster AND a new lipo.

From what I understand you can as long as it's a decent MA pack - one that will put out 15C or better. How new is the pack, and do you know the C rating on it?

The MA pack is about 4-months old. It's a 5s 6000mah rated at 20c.

[Sower]

Well, they said anything over 15C, so you should be good.

I am going to say that maxamps 5000 cells min for 4s, and their 8000 packs would be much better. I puffed a 5000 4s pack a revo with a MM. The trakpower lipos are holding up fine though. I would not suggest using the 6000 packs unless it is a 6s pack with a low (1500kv) kv motor, that is geared for 40mph or less.

Whats better a 4s2p 6000 or a 4s 6000 battery?They are both maxamps batteries.
