How To Install A Castle Creations Mamba Monster in A Traxxas Summit

[TitoFrm509]

You dont need Zip Ties, just get the ESC mount it fits perfectly to the chassis....

[tillsy23]

I was hoping to see how it all worked and any calibration if any was needed to make the system run or is it as simple as plugging the batteries in, switching it on,pulling the trigger and off it goes?

[zuleks123]

Is it worth to put in the summit brushless motor? Is the motor brushless differential damage or other parts?

[shalling84]

for appearance reasons could you guys of found a way to actually screw/bolt the esc to the chassis?

[graeme127]

you should do more videos like this

[jason1786]

200$ esc with zip ties?

[shalling84]

@jason1786 i agree there's is another way to mount it all im sure

[jason1786]

@shalling84 i hope.

[tdclf]

can you list all the extra parts that you need, for example: like screws and a drill.. all with sizes aswell please. thanks

[exaturbo]

can i run stock gearing if i upgrade to the MMM combo in the summit ?

[fraserfastproduction]

twss twss twss twss.............

[TheDrewby22]

the summit chassis is set up just like the erevos

[jasonrywal]

after u do that is it done and ready to ride and what is top speed

[kiddrockkyoya2001]

Hello, If you run a 6500 2 Cell Lipo pack, can you run it till the wheels cant turn anymore or will it burn out your ESC or something ?

[jason28w]

next time man you got to move the mic your using you are making it distort but good vid man

[blackhawkpros]

wtf dude u sound like a n00b!!!! js



[5594predator]

can you also crawl with the mamba motor ?

[ontogc]

where can u get a y adapter?

[TheRclightning]

who doing this vid???

[Pyromaniac2450]

How much does the new motor and ESC cost? And also is it still waterproof?

[TheFluffyVanquisher]

do u need to zip-tie the fan to the motor?

[TheFluffyVanquisher]

was it difficult to get the cogwheel out of of the stock motor?

[xjs2]

Hi do you need a different gear for motor or can you use stock? also is the system good for rock crawling and speed?

[kyrkbymannen]

Exactly, I'm curious about what gearing

[escalerajr]

Wat gearing did you use ?

[foxracer858crn]

does the mamba monster come with the screws for mounting the motor?

[kalishaROX]

What kinda Allen wrench set is that and where did u get it

[nickelback550]

Does the fan come with the motor?

[rcnightmare]

@nickelback550 yea

[SCHMULBACH22]

Hey rcnightmare,

what will happen if i put a single vxl system in this? would it be too much for the engine? Would it fit in the stock motor plate mount? Thank you.

[nickelback550]

Is the fan on the motor waterproof too?

[rcnightmare]

@nickelback550 no

[traxxas5308]

What's better the mamba or dual velineon motors. Just curious. I must say the mamba is awsome ( I have one in my revo )

[rcnightmare]

@traxxas5308 well...it depends what you want to do.  I mean I would rather have the one motor instead of two...but that said..it depends what you want to do.

[u2bwachr]

@traxxas5308 id go with the dual velineon just for the waterproof factor.

[wolf2hawk]

@u2bwachr all it is is a rubber seal not waterproff water resistant

[Alexsupervee]

You can use a series connection without having to use that adaptor. you can solder anougher bit of wire on to the positive part of one connector then to the negative on the other. I did the same with my E revo mmm and my emaxx mmm and my hyper st conversion also using a mmm.

[rcnightmare]

@Alexsupervee yea for sure, even better :)

[Alexsupervee]

Why not just solder two deans plugs on by using a jumper wire ?

[rcnightmare]

@Alexsupervee I am not sure what you mean? If you want to combine voltage its gotta be series..

[2leafsrule]

Why not use the stock mounting bracket for E-Revo?

[rcnightmare]

@2leafsrule because this is free :)

[bigmikie]

could you tell me how the wires plug into the esc from the motor. Like the black red and white to the esc terminals

[rcnightmare]

@bigmikie well actually I don't think there is a "set" order, I just put them in and it worked, some people say it goes backwards lol and they just switch it, I am sure its on castles site but there was nothing in the manual

[bigmikie]

@rcnightmare THANKS I GOT IT MAN THE SUMMIT RIPS WITH THAT SYSTEM

[hondatmx]

is the fan go in channel 3?

[rcnightmare]

@hondatmx yes

[TheGTbmxer]

This looks simple to do isn´t it?

[rcnightmare]

@TheGTbmxer It depends who you are, I mean, for van sure...for me...lol not to easy

[blabloomoo]

thats nice are you selling the stock esc and motorand how much

[rcnightmare]

@blabloomoo I haden't really thought of it...I like to keep the stock stuff in case I ever want to sell it, that said I don't think I will be selling this baby anytime soon, you could always PM me.

[rcnightmare]

@rcmaniac27 thanks a lot for the kind words, sadly I do not own a firestorm so I wont be able to show this, I suppose if we get one however I would for sure...now going to check them out :)

[ThePhiltastic]

intro song?

[rcnightmare]

@ThePhiltastic Its just a clip

[Danboarding]

This is sweet! Thanks for the video; I was very interested in how this is done before I upgrade mine!

[rcnightmare]

@Danboarding glad to hear, yea it was originally like 30 mins long, took forever to cut down but I think everything we needed is in there, and there are a few little obstacles that are helpful to see ahead of time.

[RCNEWStv]

Good tutorial! Thumbs up

[rcnightmare]

@RCNEWStv thanks a lot man! Eagerly awaiting the next episode of the news...you uploading that as we speak?

[RCNEWStv]

@rcnightmare lol, no not yet. About every two weeks is all I can manage.

[rcnightmare]

@RCNEWStv ur lazy :)

[beastxmoder]

[rcnightmare]

@beastxmoder yea for sure! Mamba or Tekin stuff is boss, it makes the ordinary amazing

[rcnightmare]

@ZzoldpeopleburningzZ right back at ya

[TreadRCRacing]

There you go. I told you that youd go with the mamba monster not the max. :)

[rcnightmare]

@TreadRCRacing yes the monster should be OK

[keith179150]

[rcnightmare]

[scubasteve728]

very nice cool vid great job maybe i will get one for my summit

[rcnightmare]

@scubasteve728 its about the only thing I would upgrade from the stock kit, and its a game changer

[scubasteve728]

@rcnightmare yes it is but i still need some batteries for mine the stock ones only give me like 10 minutes of run time

[rcnightmare]

@scubasteve728 yea...I would start with some lipos then...the monster stuff is a couple hundred bucks, and you will still need batteries...start there and have fun for now.

[scubasteve728]

@rcnightmare yes thats exactly my plan. i hope you get youtube partner soon so you can start paying for your hobbies

[rcnightmare]

@scubasteve728 ha yea lol, I have been holding off on applying until I get 1500 or so subs and 3K views a day, hoepfully that will happen by the end of april...then I will apply..

[scubasteve728]

@rcnightmare i see i hope it happens hah i will do my part lol
