Waterproof: The Mamba Monster 2 ESC is resistant to water, but it is not intended for continuous

operation while submerged. If the ESC is operated in wet conditions, rinse with fresh water to remove

dirt or corrosives and then fully dry the ESC. The ESC fan is not water resistant. Remove the fan from

ESC before exposing the vehicle to liquids. Always check to see that the rest of the components in your

vehicle can withstand getting wet.

CARE AND FEEDING OF YOUR MAMBA MONSTER 2: DO THE MATH! Limits: Mamba Monster 2 is incredibly powerful, but know his limits. 6S (25.2 volts) is the max input voltage! Not all LiPos are created equal, and surge ratings should never be used to determine a pack’s suitability for a brushless application. Use the CONTINUOUS C rating only. BEC: Monster 2 has an adjustable BEC with a default output value of 5.5V. We suggest that you choose a pack that can deliver more amperage than the drive system draws.
