Been waiting for that 1518 to come out for a long time! I have a home for one as soon as they're available, my RC8T needs more power! Can't wait to see what kind of power it lays down, eagle tree is waiting for some more testing!

SC10 MMPro 13.5T 2s NeuEnery 5000mah
RC18T Mamba 25/5400kv 2s lipo + 6s NiMh

The 50V limit I'm guessing is in the lethal range for DC?

Still that's an odd regulation.

I vote shorter.. "Atomic Mamba!" Yes, with the exclamation!

The photo on the box would be a no-brainer

You won't even be able to buy one without background checks.

50V lethal?? Maybe if you stabbed yourself in the heart with the wires...

CE is just over cautious... at those voltages, the current (and heat the current can generate) is much more dangerous than the voltage.

So when will we see a HV controller(s) for us car guys Patrick. I know an airplane controller can be made to work with a car software and most wanted something like the HV110. I still have my burnt HV110 here and I know it's out of warranty, but I can send it back to you if you want to use the processing board.

Never mind, I just looked at my HV110 and the processing board and the PCB under it is pretty much fried.

Well, the car software won't work on the HV-110 anyway. It doesn't have the hardware for car software.

However, the ICE-HV-160 will have car software available soon (if we can ever get the Air version of the software done!!!)

You will be able to trade-in your HV-110 towards an ICE-HV controller...

Wow, so much stuff gets posted while Im in bed sleeping & at work...

1. Nice to see CHC back again, been a long time dude.
2. Cheers for the pics Patrick- 1512 1800kv you say? That sounds EXACTLY like the kind of motor I need/want for my TXT-1 project- bit less grunt than the normal 1515, but the lower kv that I desire for 5s operation.
3. ICE Monster (look into my eyes...you will use that name....) available soon-ish, after the air version is done? Exxxxxcellent....
4. I forgot what #4 was.

Nice one, cool and short

What about ICE Mammouth or
ICE Juggernaut

That's pretty cool XR... but is it a Beauville? hehe.

Yeah I guess you have some mods indeed!

There you go guys, most random threadjack ever

Nice work, and we will all know what the XR in FastXR is now...
