I'm very satisfied with everything I've ordered. The guys are very helpful and have given me excellent service and advise. Even when I just needed parts for a kit I had purchased from them !!
Wow this Mamba Monster X is one badass motor it definitely takes the RC world to another level in my Cen Colossus 4x4 XT run smooth low temperatures definitely does everything it says it will do and more I love this motor i am so impressed wow
Excellent 1/8 setup. CASTLE QUALITY & PERFORMANCE is #1 hands down. Whether you need a buggy/truggy setup or short course/drift-road car setup this is the kit for you. Plenty of power, exceptionally efficient & runs cool.
I put this combo in my MT 48 2.2 that I just built. A similar build to the one in the a main video. This thing absolutely rips! It’s too early to comment about durability but first impression is that it is super powerful and fast. I usually go for hobby wing, but I had heard good things about castle so…
Very high quality setup and extremely fast shipping!
All six reviewers gave five-star ratings, and all are verified owners of the Monster X 1/8 Brushless Combo with 1515 V2 sensored motor (2200Kv). Reviewers consistently describe the setup as very powerful and fast, with low operating temperatures and efficient running. Several mention fitting it to 1/8 platforms such as a Cen Colossus 4x4 XT, an MT 48 2.2 and a TLR Tuned LMT, and one notes 2S is plenty of power on 3S is nearly too much. Installation is described as easy. Durability is not yet established, as one reviewer states it is too early to judge. Some comments focus on the seller's service and shipping rather than the motor itself.
- + Very high power and speed
- + Runs cool and efficient
- + Easy installation
- + Helpful seller and fast shipping
- − Durability not yet proven
