recommended BL ESC?
#16
Does anyone here know (for a fact) that the Mamba Max and/or Mamba Side Winder can be used with motors from Novak, LRP etc?
Also, would the 4600kv motor they offer be roughly equivelant to Stock 27T, and the 5700kv motor be roughly equivelant to 19T? Are the Mamba motors/esc's ROAR approved?
Thanks guys.
(edit) - through a little more reading, sounds as though Mamba only makes screaming fast motors and so-far has nothing equivelant to the 27T or 19T. Question still stands on compatibility with other sensored or not-sensored motors. Can they be used with the Mamba ESC's?

The mamba max is good for high power and high voltage. I've never been able to get the power band quite how I like it, close, but not right on. Actually bought a LRP TC spec for touring, partially so I can run lower speed classes, but also to see if I like the power band better - it's smoother for fast motors for me.
The best feel I've had on a bl controller is on the one I picked up friday Not sure it's really available yet though and has a low ish motor limit.
So far I've had:
Novak SS + 5800 - good for bashing, limited motor choice and tuning, not raceable (no brushed support )
1/18 mamba decent, raced 1/18th with it (no brushed support )
Shultz u-Force 75 - Good for it's age, both better and worse than the MM
Mamba Max - Very flexible, drives most motors, like the 4pole plettenberg shadow I used with the shultz, haven't tried with roar motors, potentially better peak power than other choices
LRP TC Spec - smoother but less punchy(this might be tunable) , limited voltage input (no 3 cell li-poly ), sensored motors only, my current choice for foam carpet mod
One I picked up friday.. best feel, but I haven't raced it, low power limit(10.5) but small and inexpensive. no idea on brushed support.
Given that you want to run carpet touring with the option for brushed I'd go with the lrp or the mamba. There are more options out there that might work better though.

The new LRP motors are being labelled as sensored and sensorless.
