Mamba XLX2 Extreme ESC for 1/5, 1/6, 1/7 Scale

The Mamba XLX2 ESC has been meticulously engineered with a robust blend of hardware and software innovations, including sensored performance, CRYO-DRIVE technology, onboard data logging, an impressive integrated 20A Peak Adjustable BEC, and a waterproof design. This advanced ESC is poised to redefine the standards of high-performance power systems for large-scale RC vehicles.

At the core of the XLX2 is CRYO-DRIVE, Castle's proprietary and groundbreaking technology. It seamlessly combines specialized software and dedicated hardware to significantly reduce heat generation while enhancing overall performance. Thousands of times per second, the sophisticated XLX2 software efficiently minimizes the duration that electrical components are engaged in heat production. This is complemented by an open housing design that facilitates increased airflow, allowing for better cooling of critical components.

The XLX2 boasts a new 50mm fan and a forged elliptical fin heatsink that work together to maximize airflow throughout the system. This innovative thermal management leads to improved power handling, cooler ESC temperatures, and extended runtimes, making it ideal for ultra-high performance needs.

For added tuning flexibility, the Mamba XLX2 features on-the-fly adjustments via your transmitter using the Auxiliary wire. By connecting the white signal wire to an available radio channel and enabling the desired features in Castle Link, users can effortlessly access various programming parameters like Torque Control, Max Brake settings, and Max Throttle adjustments.

When paired with the Castle 4-POLE 12-SLOT SENSORED 2028 motors (offering both 800KV and 1100KV options), the Mamba XLX2 allows heavy, high-speed rigs to enjoy controllable low-end ranges without compromising on power, punch, or speed. The SmartSense mode utilizes the motor's sensors for smooth starts, excellent torque, and remarkable low-speed performance. Once the motor is up to speed, it transitions seamlessly into Castle’s ultra-efficient sensorless mode, effectively transferring more power to the ground where it truly matters, rather than dissipating it through excessive heat or RPMs.

For those using the Mamba XLX2, it's crucial to ensure that all components in the system can handle the exceptional power and performance levels that this ESC delivers. For detailed instructions on calibration, input voltage, minimum battery requirements, wiring, soldering, connectors, and more, be sure to consult the Mamba XLX2 Product Use Statements, available in the documentation section.
