Experience higher efficiency, advanced features and improved optimization for your stock upgrade or build with Castle’s legendary brushless power.  The MAMBA MONSTER X 8S, 33.6V ESC W/1520-1650KV SENSORED COMBO is a perfect upgrade for 1/8, 1/7 and 1/6 scale vehicles weighing up to 18lbs and up to 8S LiPo. The 1520-1650Kv has all of the secret sauce that the big brother 1717-1650Kv has, but in a more compact diameter, fitting into smaller spaces without modifications to your chassis.

New 1520-1650Kv V2 motor now included!  Our commitment to progress is driven by our passion for unlocking untapped potential. We constantly challenge ourselves to find new ways to enhance our products which is why we are excited to share the newly redesigned 1520-1650Kv V2. The transformation has included several improvements, most contributed by new stator and rotor assembly upgrades that, in turn, allow for even HIGHER EFFICIENCY, REDUCED TEMPERATURES, AND SMOOTHER START-UPS!
