1 year later this video has convinced me to get my own limitless and Castle Mamba Monster X 8s. I don't plan to beat any records but just want to enjoy owning and running recreational speed runs!
Castle has definitely stepped up their game with the MMX 8S & the XLX2. I have used both on my Limitless and they run incredibly cool. I'm currently running the XLX2 w/ a 1717 1650kv motor on my Limitless now. I just geared her back down to 1:1 (34/34) to have fun with shorter runs. Even on 8S, I can do multiple passes @ ~117mph avg back to back, like 4-5 passes & the freaking thing stays cool. After that many passes, the motor was the warmest component at ~150F, no fans. Even when I geared her pretty high, pulling almost 15hp, I was able to get 2 runs & the ESC never got past 152F, which is well under the 200F limit they call out. We'll see what #s I get with the 1721 2400kv when I get that in, I can't wait to try it out. 😎👍
@@ant9072 Hi, it all depends on what you're doing with the car. If you're doing speedruns and looking into getting into the ~130mph+ range, then yes, the XLX2 is definitely worth it because it's going to run a lot more efficiently than the MMX 8S. If you're bashing around or doing lower speedruns in the 100-130mph range, the MMX 8S will be fine. You will however need a good cap pack with the MMX 8S. The XLX2 performs amazing without a cap pack. I have done 120mph runs on the XLX2 with ripple voltage of only 0.93V. That's amazing!! Here's a link from Innovation RC covering a more detailed breakdown between the Castle ESCs: th-cam.com/video/rgnPTQg8l1I/w-d-xo.html Also, if you currently have any old 6S ESC, working or not working, Castle brand or not, you can send it to castle creations for an upgrade to an xlx2 for $123 out the door. That's an over $127 saving as they go for $250 +tax. I just sent them an old Arrma Blx185 system, the ESC was good but the motor was shot. They're sending me an xlx2 & a 1717 1650kv motor for $275 out the door. Something to think about 😎👍
@@rcbustanut2057 wow thanks for the detailed response. I will mostly be parking lot bashing with occasional speed runs. Nothing crazy just looking to break 100. The roads here aren't very good for speed runs. But the xlx2 is only 50 dollars more. With no cap pack needed it makes more sense. I'm just gonna be running 6s for bashing and 8 s for speed runs. I'm just hoping the xlx2 isn't too much for 6s. Also I have a busted vxl 6s so if they will take that definitely going to trade In. Thanks for all the help!
@@1521joe I sure did. Got it last week. Pretty nice. Made it a few 109+ mph passes and I lost control. Got a on board video uploaded on my channel of the whole thing. Just got it rebuilt yesterday. Went up a couple sizes on the pinion. Now I'm just waiting for a day that isn't so windy and going for another run.
@@InnovationRC this new esc has caught my attention really hard. I have the monster x 6s and i dont have the confidence in it like i do my normal mamba x as ive blown one up in my kraton after 2 runs on 6s. May have to preorder one as a backup to my xlx in my limitless as it scares the hell out of me that it'll blow up Everytime lmao And fwiw i push 8s through my 1515 2200kv in my limitless and she takes it just fine lol
Nice video, those ESC's are great man. I have the Mamba monster X in my build but the Mamba monster X 8S is another level. Cryo drive, I wonder what it is. but it is a very good feature because I tested it in their SW4 ESC on a vehicle that was even much heavier
Appreciate it man. Yeah the cryo drive basically allows advanced cooling. Which drastically boosts efficiency and power flow. Mmx8s is probably the most efficient esc out there to date.
Awesome show here but the best for me was when u pushed him, at 7:28😬 I always wanned to know why folk push him as they start, now I know, what a G u is🏁💯💯
Hi. Beautiful car and setup. Please i want to build one like that. What esc. And motor .and servo etc are u using. ? Appreciate it here from las Vegas:)
Cool video, That ESC is amazing i was looking into buying this esc with 1717 1,650KV combo for either my XO-1 roller if i build it and my future Infraction V2. Currently i'm debating if i should build my XO-1 roller with a MMX 8s\1717 system or buy a new RTR and upgrade it later on.
@@Antsmith21 it's going to be discontinued. Xlx is using the same parts ever since the original XL. Castle can't source parts for it and replace them anymore since everyone's blowing them up. So this is step one for them to get back on top again.
Hi bro.How is the Mamba Monster x 8s performing?I'm thinking of buying it but my experience with Castle products hasn't been good bought three Mamba Monsters and two failed within less than two months and sold the other and replaced it with a Hobbywing Max8.
I just gat all that for my limitless I love this car man I just built my xo1 now I’m doin this one this two cars man are no joke I went all out with gpm parts aluminum
What speeds you get outta the traxxas xo-1? I just swaped to the speed gear and left the other one Stock so it's overgeared right?. It's a traxxas xo-1 also
Joshua Burgess I did 115 that is good for me I don’t want to fuck my car up lol speed gear is34 and the other is a 46 car those really good man I love it
@@Yay-hovah there are always people that will think differently of how I perform comparing someone else. Regardless a positive or negative I go with the flow 😊
@@Yay-hovah I see your viewpoint man. There's many people that dislike what I do and say it to me. Sometimes pm me on social media apps out of nowhere to tell me how much I sucked lol Just after awhile of all the negativity that's all I can do is let it roll off my shoulder. There isn't anyone that can please everyone.
It's a max 6 variant. It can get decent speeds, efficient easily is better than xlx. But I am unsure as of now. You'd be the one to determine that question 😉
Castles Max6 haha nice. May have to cop one of these. My Max6 never missed a beat at high speed but boy do I love the adjustability of my other castles
@@henriksrensen5958 castle mamba max pro and sct endition are far superior esc's. Just very very old at this point. I still run 2 mamba max pro scts in my touring cars even though the esc is 14 years old
#InnovationRC - Sick run brother!! I am thinking about either going with an Infraction or a limitless!! I'm not looking to break any world records but if I do go with an Infraction what motor and ESC would you recommend switching out in the infraction? Or if I go with a Limitless, what motor and ESC! I AM JUST LOOKING TO JOIN THE 100MPH CLUB! Would this be a good set up with a ripple cap pack and the Castle Creations Mamba Monster X 8S, 33.6V Esc W/ 1717-1650Kv
Appreciate it man. I mean you can easily do 120 with a Castle 1515 2200kv with the Mamba monster X 8s on 6s. Can also do it with the 1717 on 6 or 8s just more money. 1717 will easily handle longer runtimes over the 2200. The mamba monster x 8s is more efficient than an xlx with any cap pack. You don't even need to run one to break 100. Literally buy the 2200kv motor and mmx8s and your set for 130+ mph. th-cam.com/video/zypeX3DbAlU/w-d-xo.html
@@InnovationRC Thanks brother, I really enjoyed the interview they did with you on your rigs and the other guy! Anyways, so go with the Mamba X and the Castle 2200kv motor in the limitless and add some Yeah racing fans and I should be good to go... It necessary to get a ripple cap pack?

Just ordered the mmx8s for my infraction v2.stoked. What speeds do you think ill get with the stock infraction motor? Is the stock motor too high kv for this esc on 6s?
Hey bud I love the vids and the builds I just got the mamba monster x 8s and castle 2200kv censored motor for my infraction how do you think it will do what gearing would u recommend I want it too be fast but I'm not trying to make records and advise for diff fluids, cap packs ect.. thanks
Tell me how much is going to cost on the New castle Mamba Monster X and the castle model # what in the Arma Limitless ,what's the price and were you get it from Amazon Ebay or what I have if pick up the car Saturday
What size pinion are you using? I have that same ESC in my inferno gt converted to electric with a tp 4070 motor and custom belt drive. Haven't run it yet, I'm from NY the weather is frigid here.
Bro your killin it out there!! Good stuff man.... except for the charger smoking ouch. Killer setup man cool motor & nice times!!! 👊🏼😎👍🏼Top notch brother 💯🔥
Hi just saw the video and I loved it what do I need to buy I am trying to build my new limitless can you give me a parts list for it to reach over 100mph.
Hello, I would suggest the . Mamba monster x8s esc with the Castle 2200kv motor combo kit. . CNHL 6s 5000mah 70c G+ battery. . You'll need a steering servo, radio & receiver. Gear it 28/34 on 6s and that should be around 115 Mph.
@@NateHarrisCreations That actually makes sense, but i think you mean the cells in series. I also thought it might be because a battery has a "c" charge rating and that would be confusing, but your explanation makes more sense.
@@InnovationRC dam thanks bro .. i didnt think u would answer it such a big secret nobody wants to tell to help other people out im glad i found your video do u have a patron channel
@@topchoice32 consider people take a lot of time in this hobby to achieve a goal. Some speed guys think giving out gearing is stupid because you didn't go out and attempt all the stuff they did to achieve it. Blood, sweat, tears I get it. Someone who gives gearing isn't helping that person who asked. If you really want to be faster you need to understand what batteries/ electronics are formidable to your setup, connectors, suspension tuning and even what you want to achieve (A goal). What makes a well built speed car a well built speed car. I am by far not the fastest or have anything heavy in the speed world. But I will say, if I desired help I wouldn't be asking for gearing. For me to really go into this to explain the best way is how I show how you would go fast. In turn- this is true help. Contact me on Instagram @innovationrc if you have further questions about your setup so I can really help you understand how to go faster 😉 I haven't looked into Patron really. Just trying to get a solid state of content before I proceed with that
Thanks! Usually for all escs 170°F and under I like to keep them. Sure they can operate at higher Temps but the best performance happens the colder it usually is
I appreciate the video, because I'm buying this ESC SPECIFICALLY to run on 6s. So maybe just because a video doesn't make YOU happy, maybe that doesn't mean that the video is useless. You're incredibly self centered, do you know that ?
1 year later this video has convinced me to get my own limitless and Castle Mamba Monster X 8s. I don't plan to beat any records but just want to enjoy owning and running recreational speed runs!
My favorite part is when you push the car at 7:27 and realized that you didn't need to do that. Nothing like smooth startup on a 121mph car.
Absolutely great review!! Very honest and very to the point. Nothing sugar coated. Clean passes and system held up very well!!
HOLY SHIT! i ordered this esc today! cant wait to try this with my infraction.
dont lie colin, you didnt order sheeeet!!
Wow! What an ESC! I need one of these in my life! Great footage!

I only get reverse with this esc can you show how you installed and calibrated this
You should put one in the Kraton 8s so no more cut off. Nice review.
I did, check out a newer video
Why do people say 5S when cell is spelled with a C?
Almero because the "s" is for the batteries being in series
@@NateHarrisCreations That actually makes sense, but i think you mean the cells in series. I also thought it might be because a battery has a "c" charge rating and that would be confusing, but your explanation makes more sense.
@@Gex121 yes, each cell
@innovation bro what gear set up u using or is it a secret and where did u get the wing from bro.
Amped rc has the wing, 30 34
@@InnovationRC dam thanks bro .. i didnt think u would answer it such a big secret nobody wants to tell to help other people out im glad i found your video do u have a patron channel
@@InnovationRC was that the first gear set or both ?
@@topchoice32 consider people take a lot of time in this hobby to achieve a goal. Some speed guys think giving out gearing is stupid because you didn't go out and attempt all the stuff they did to achieve it. Blood, sweat, tears I get it. Someone who gives gearing isn't helping that person who asked. If you really want to be faster you need to understand what batteries/ electronics are formidable to your setup, connectors, suspension tuning and even what you want to achieve (A goal). What makes a well built speed car a well built speed car.
I am by far not the fastest or have anything heavy in the speed world. But I will say, if I desired help I wouldn't be asking for gearing. For me to really go into this to explain the best way is how I show how you would go fast. In turn- this is true help. Contact me on Instagram @innovationrc if you have further questions about your setup so I can really help you understand how to go faster 😉
I haven't looked into Patron really. Just trying to get a solid state of content before I proceed with that
@@InnovationRC i been trying like 4 different setups bt friend everything and thanks again for the help on tthat
Good runs. Quick question what are safe temps for this esc and the xlx?
Thanks! Usually for all escs 170°F and under I like to keep them. Sure they can operate at higher Temps but the best performance happens the colder it usually is
What's the name of the temperature device you are using??
What motor you running
What gear did you change it to and is that the stock spool
is that 1515 motor?
Since you’re kind of a castle expert, what would you get for bashing, the mm2 or Mmx?
does the x8s usually have a kind of weak brake...even though mine is set to 100% it doesnt brake as quickly as a fIRMA ESC
Why make a video on the New 8s esc and only run it 6s, that defeats the purpose. Test the thing if you going to test it, throw some cells to it
Testing amperage capabilities. What many escs fail to achieve efficiently
I appreciate the video, because I'm buying this ESC SPECIFICALLY to run on 6s.
So maybe just because a video doesn't make YOU happy, maybe that doesn't mean that the video is useless.
You're incredibly self centered, do you know that ?
