Thanks. I will have one when they are in stock ;-)
Looking forward to see what this really is.

joern and brushless,

i could be wrong but i think that listing on tower hobbies is the mamba xl speed controller and not the motor????

I was thinking the same thing after I did a search on tower. The link from tower is listed under speed controllers. Not for brushless motors. When you look for "Castle" products there is nothing for the 2038 motor under brushless motors. I think its too new myself right now but I am more then sure there could very well be a discount off their web site. The biggest question is who wants to build a 12S system to fully utilize the power of the motor. 12S speedos are on the top end for my pocket book although the MGM 400 is probably my next HV speedo for 2011.

i agree that 12s is the way to get the most out of this in a boat application..the rpm limit will determine the fate of this motor in a boat..

My bad on the link I posted...
You guys are right its for the esc

[Joern Markset]

I have all the stuff for a 12S boat laying around anyway, such as a 2230, 200A-HV, lipos, hull and and hardware and so on...
So far it has not been time to build, there is a bunch of boats in my workshop ready to be build. If someone have some sparetime to sell please leave me a message...

I`ll get the motor one way or another anyway

they are listed at Tower, and with $60 off they are only $240!

Besides: Castle Creations 1/5 Mamba XL 34V Extreme

If tthis motor was rated at 34Vdc, you could not really run it on 10S safely but, this was an esc....


I heard or saw a pic way back of a Leopard that was 115mm long or so...

I bet Leopard will have one sooner or later. Maybe Hobby King will make it pop up since they just started selling 1/5 scale Baja buggies.

$240.00 is a hell of a deal for that much motor , and 750 - 780 KV is absolutely in the ball park for a 10 - 12 cell motor . i don't know what the castle dude was thinking

[RIPFENCE]

this is going to be sweet..imagine the possibilities..you can put two in a huge cat!!! for 20hp

Leopards site indicates a possibility of a 4092 motor.
