New castle brusless system?

[Arct1k]

I'm guessing thats some roar hang up - I highly doubt Patrick would re-tool/spec for another ESC - My guess is that it is a stock sidewinder and hence 3S capable and 4s abusable (with BEC) like the good old MM days...

could also be that the load of the 1410 (essentially a 15 series motor in a smaller can), is a good load on the esc and pushing the voltage would be too much for the esc to handle. Just a guess

Actually, no. :)

This is a completely new ESC that happens to fit in the Sidewinder case.

It handles about 50% more power than the original Sidewinder -- but still has a standard linear BEC -- so limited to about 3S on the ESC.

The combo (with 1410 motor) is designed to be ROAR legal for racing on 2S systems. -- We designed the motor specifically to cram as much stator/rotor as possible into the ROAR legal case size.

Lol oh well...

I guess this must finally be close to the end of the mamba Max then. They have about the same power handling or do
You still have lots of boards, heatsinks and cases?
