WOW!!! I just went to the
Castle Creations website, and the Mamba-25 is indeed discontinued, being replaced by the
Sidewinder Micro! I thought that the Sidewinder was going to be a cheaper alternative to the Mamba-25.
*BUT*
What's sweet about the Sidewinder is, they claim that it's even better than the Mamba-25 plus it's cheaper!
*AND THEN*
pair that with their 25% off everything in March sale...
you're looking at only $97.46 for the Sidewinder Micro/CM2080 Motor Combo (ONLY $129.95 less 25%) WOW!!!
The Sidewinder Micro is just an upgraded esc, but why get a new and improved esc to use with your old motor? I'd just go all out and get a complete new package set up! LOL :P
Purchasing just the Sidewinder Micro esc alone is beneficial for people who are going to run brushed motors wiring in Reversing Brushed Motor Mode or High Power Brushed Motor Mode.
