Every time I watch one of your vids, I've gotta say I get more out of this channel than any other RC stuff I subscribe to, and always look forward to the next one. It has saved me tons of time and money on stuff I may need or might not want. Has kept me up with some of the latest and greatest, and you seem like just a regular dude like me. Thanks for putting in the work Brother
Hey thanks man. I am just a regular guy. I work have 4 cats lol. That’s kinda weird :) honestly it’s from my fpv quad days. I show and try to present like a lot of the bigger guys there did and I did for years but now I just have a bigger audience because for some reason real rc you tubers are for some reason not that good IMO and with our drag stuff just don’t roll out this content.
@Gravity Racer GT I already do that. However, you don't get real world feedback from a FB group, and a lot of UA-camrs just want to be heroes. I find you get a too many cheerleaders, especially from sponsored sites or shop owners. Nothing wrong with that, I get it. But I like it better when I don't get a lot of sunshine blown up my ass.
Lol. Haven’t heard that in years. I’ll be using that line today for sure
I agree he's a life savior and a wallet savior. I learn so much from Chad I tell my buddies in my RC club about his knowledge they check him out also. Word of mouth spreads fast when your good your good Chad is and I'll be a sub 4 life.
I’m honored man. I really am. Y’all’s kind words make the real job day easier for sure. Tough being in a hospital these days.
Im running this in my new build. I know your team r1 now but what was the fastest you went and fdr and weight?
1.63 88mhp. Weight was around 2400g
Finally figured out that castles rock eh. Been running the castle mamba monster x with a tekin 2.5 for a month or so. Data logging is great. You should be showing your hp. Mine makes anywhere from 2.3 to 2.5 hp everytime out. Still running the stock lcg slash chassis. Car has gone 2.5 at 58mph and 2.56 at 60 mph on my gnss.
I can turn it on but it’s just a fun number. I don’t see the value yet but I’m sure I will :)
@@Dorkyand40 I watched your latest video where you were giving all the credit to your radio. Myself personally I feel that without the castle you would still be stuck in the 2.4s or 2.3s. You are a very wishy washy dude.
Not really. Sure without the castle i wouldn’t have hit those times but without the radio to smooth out the power I wouldn’t have gone from 2.3-2.1 in the video. I also went from 2.4s to 2.3s with the drk using radio ramping vs their staging. And then there’s the steering ramping. Same story.
2.4 is a hard wall to break
@@Dorkyand40 I wanted to say sorry for my comment about your pay pal it was rude and unessesary, I hope you will forgive me. Ps I'm a great tipper.
I didn't know what I was talking about until I started watching this guy (Great UA-cam channel ) with loads of info....... I finally picked up my MMX8S now the fun begins, as far B-link goes & I realize this isn't a new video but I've never had a single issue connecting or anything on my mamba X for my crawlers, always works flawless. , I wish there was a few more options on the app but there's still plenty (no complaints).... Great Vids Bro
Yeah b link seems to work just fine now. Just can’t see logs so that’s an issue until they update the app.
@@Dorkyand40 I know, I hate that you can't do that through the app!! you mentioned them updating, did you hear something about them adding logs on the app?
I would think eventually. They seem to be getting more serious about nprc. They want that money
@@Dorkyand40 Very True, fingers crossed 🤞🏼!!
Welcome to the wonderful world of throttle speed and the Mamba Monster X... congrats on the PB I can't wait Macklin 1/8 scale they've been teasing
Thanks bro. Good luck this weekend. Saw you got the call. That thing will be gold dust until next year though. Sadly
@@Dorkyand40 yes sir prepping for the first time at a race. Trying that DRC Tire see how it accepts prep compared to the voodoo
Going to be interesting to see. I hope they work for you. You def know what you’re doing so if I trust anyone about the tire situation it’s you.
The castle is definitely a good one for sure, loved my MMX i had in my tarp chassis… congratulations on the pb! That’s odd you weren’t able to select your range cause I’m able to under custom.
I can but I just can’t type in a number. It calculates the range. Tekin did the same but wasn’t as picky. I think it’s how the algorithm adds the timing.
@@Dorkyand40 strange, i can type mine. You should be able to with the b-link.
I saw that with the b link you could. Some one showed me. Pc it’s not as friendly
Hey man, seen new video with the O.G helping you with the Cheat mode rpm’s, what did you put yours at to add timing for end of run? Couldn’t hear him..
I’m going to cover that and more next video. I messed that one up and decided to just make another castle video because I get so many questions. I’ll make sure to add that part though recorded the right way this time. He seems to be popular. As he should be. He went top 20 at Kentucky this weekend
It’s soooo funny because when street eliminators first came out, only east coast guys were running Castle. We got bashed for not having a Hobbywing at the time. Fast forward to today & guys are running the Castle! Wow
Yeah man and who knows what will happen in 6 months :)
Hey what’s your gearing also do you use throttle speed or only expo and d/r
biggest i can get..usually 102-104 spur and 32-36 pinion these days
Thank you so much finely someone who shows the GPS readings and info on the data logging and set up an the sanwa M17 I have used your setup as a base to start im running the Dr10 mamba 8s tekin 3.5 gen3 and just got the Sanwa M17 boy you were right the m17 is s game changer logging forward to some other adjustments in the M17 besides the forward and point adjustments three thumbs up 👍👍👍🤙
Start playing with expo. It’s an easy start. More to come friend.
@@Dorkyand40
Ok tx
Sir , I’m having systems meltdown in my upstairs with all the knowledge , lol ! I will get it soon ! Gonna spend some more money for the Mamba Monster X , using a Mamba X 1/10 now ! I do understand what you are saying but wow ! Thanks for the video !
Excellent!
What app is that in your phone that shows the speed
The gnss native app
Hey Chad, re-watching some of your older videos while waiting on you newer and faster ones. I noticed that your time on your GNSS and your log on the Castle is about .4 seconds off. I noticed that mine is also off by .4 seconds from my GNSS. Which time do you think is more accurate? after noticing that it has me wondering if the MPH on my GNSS is off as well. Thanks for all your videos, with your help I have gone from a 3.35 to a 2.53 using my GNSS.
So glad to help man I really am. My gnss is usually about .15-.3 off. So I just say .2. I had one before it that was a tad more accurate but these things are super cheap and they never update the app or firmware on them. They could be better but in this current electronic world we won’t see anything soon
Did u figure out the cogging on the mmx8s looking like it cogs in your video I just set mine up and can’t get it not to cog and stuck in the 1.65 to 1.55 66fts wondering how u got your to work
Hello Chad,
I have a dr10 with R1 3.5 and just got my mamba x8s
I am struggling with a setup for the esc.
Can you share a setup tune.
Thank you
Hey jimmy. I’m going to put a video together tonight so keep an eye out later.
How did u convert your 2.5t to kv, trying to findout what kv is 2.0t
So do u think the castle is better than the drk?? My buddy uses a third channel for the tour we setting and just clicks it up or down at the line
It’s better since it can handle lower turn motors and make more power. For anyone I still would recommend a drk and a 4t to learn on.
I just got a mmx8s after selling my rx8 i feel like its the best choice i made for next year since the data logging seems 10 times better and the power these things can hold and temps stay low
It’s. Solid. It’s worked for a average guy like me.
Would u rather use the mamba or the mclan drk?
Mamba with an m17. Drk if no m17.
Sup man I got another DR10 that I got set up with a 3.5 motor and Tekin Rx8 G2 and man with torque power down and timing down this thing still really aggressive running 87/19 best time I've gotten is 2.65 cause it's literally spinning wheels like 20ft out. You got any recommendations? TIA 👍
Get a sanwa m17. It is the way.
Im using a Sanwa MTS right now
I read up on the motor not the esc but they say you want a lower gear ratio then other over the counter stuff to get the r's up
90-18 is a good start. Gotta put in the time and work from there.
So what would u recommend the mmx 6s or 8s or the drk from ur experience?
The drk of you don’t have a radio to help you tune with. After that the mmx8s since it’s castles newest technology and has worked extremely well for me.
@@Dorkyand40 I have the rc5gs have throttle timing and throttle curve and a few other settings I haven't tried yet. Had some bad luck with escs want one thats the most durable running a 3.5t motor
@@Dorkyand40 witch is better in ur opinon the 8s or drk?
Hey bud thanks for another great video, always helpful. Planning on running one on my car just waiting on radio. Ty have a great day
You got it man!!
really like all your vids thank you for all your hard work, still waiting on my fantom to come in for the losi, oh hey what editing software do you use for your vids thanks.
Thanks again man. Adobe premiere pro. Fantom power baby
@@Dorkyand40 yeah I've seen a lot of good reviews on them I can't wait to run that phantom thanks for all your help pretty soon here I'm going to be starting a UA-cam channel I'll send you a link thank you
what cap packs would you suggest ? fpr this setup do you have an affiliate link for these ?
No affiliate links except Amazon. Seems like any you can find right now.
Castle Creations CapPack, do you run the 50V or the 35v cap pack with your current setup
The35v one.
Nice video Dorky I use for mi losi 22s trinity 3.5 hole shot and mmx8s what spur and pinion pitch is god thank you appreciate i followage you channel
I'm just now getting into outlaw rc drag racing 3s. Been trying to find a 3s capable esc that can ramp in power time based. The basic sidewinder esc I have now it just spins so bad to start it's uncontrollable
youll need an m17 or futaba 7px or greater to have a chance to control everything
@@Dorkyand40 how would the transmitter/controller help over a better esc like the cobra 8 ace
Yesss . Welcome to the dark side my friend these castle esc's absoulety eat man . Iv seen over 200amps on my 1/10 scale mamba x . Gonna go mmx 8s this winter ..Alabama weather allows me to tune during the winter thankfully
You a lucky man! I’m sure there will be more of these in the wild and honestly I bet there’s more then we know after mark vyne dropped the bomb. He’s been very silent since on that group.
What are the rules for limiters like fuel line on the front shocks?
Just 1/4 shock travel
Thanks
Haha welcome to the club brother ive been running a mmx8s just run a good battery and let her rip!
Lol. Yes sir!!
Castle has had this capability for some time. I’ve been using mamba monster x with a 2.5t running 2.2 & 2.3. I never considered using a esc that has 400amp capability. If u can tune in the remote u should be 2.0 in no time
Is this setup running on 2s ?
Yes sir. Nprc rules
I use the monster x 6S with the cap pack for added protection and I’m liking it!! I run a losi 22s all stock chassis with a Tekin 3.5T gen 4 and I’m in the 2.4’s at 55mph now waiting to install the 90T gear because it’s currently running a 18/87
90/18 worked good for my 3.5 fantom
@@Dorkyand40 sweet good to hear!!
Where do you get the 90T spur
Amain. Those are kimbraugh spurs
@@Dorkyand40 watch all your vids man, I put a MM8S in my Losi, no cogging, but just up the drive way today is testing
Where do I buy that weight box for the front of the car ? For some reasons I’m not getting replies on UA-cam
Fivestarhobbies
Castle is the king of speed. You can’t get data log from the b-link just FYI. Are you liking the trinity battery better then the max amps.
Yes I do. I have a theory on these batteries. The trinity is using 4 big cells. My max amps 6300 has 6 smaller. I think the 4 bigger ones can take the hit harder then 6 little ones. I also noticed this with the smaller 4350 4p max amps. If you go back and watch that video it was the same.
@@Dorkyand40 did you just say 4 and 6 cell LOL... you're supposed to say multipack the class is getting crazy
4p. So they use 4 cells in parallel to make 1 cell. So instead of having 2 big cells they are wiring them in parallel internally to lower the IR and spread the hit over all of them.
You know what I mean!! Lol. I see that now. I got the joke after replying :) not enough coffee yet
@@Dorkyand40 lol
Hey man , was just watching your newest video, as I always do, and I seen on your table when you were out running, you had a ryobi charger, charging something. Are you running your lipo charger off that somehow?? I’m very new with the 2wd no prep, bought a rtr losi in may, it’s hitting straight, and I’m trying to tune and go faster. It was only a few weeks ago that I realized I need to buy a generator, like everyone else has, for recharging after every pass. Discharging when I’m done, is another big issue, that truly sucks. But anyway, I don’t recall in any of your videos, hearing a gas powered generator running, so I was just wondering
so i do a few things..i use little isdt chargers and cheap bigger 4s batteries from amazon to charge with. i recenlt bought this ryobi to supplement that and a car inverter from harbor freight..so im trying a few things. the ryobi seems to work really good vs using long cords..i laready had a 40 volt battery for their chainsaw so the 70 bucks was easier to swallow and try it. a charger and inverter from harbor freight is the cheapest
@@Dorkyand40 Wow, thanks man. That’s really interesting, I’m going to have to look into these things…or just buy a $400 to $500 generator from amazon, like one of the local guys suggested. Thank you for all the videos, I really appreciate them.
lol..ive tried to avoid it but if i was at an all day event things would be a little more difficult
Great video man thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Can you use 12 gauge on castle Mamba X?
You can but you really need to be skilled and have proper soldering stuff to change the wires out on a castle. I think they are big enough and any efficiency gains are going to be minimal. Clip the ends and throw some monster bullets on there and your battery and go that route.
@@Dorkyand40 I have 8mm Castle bullets to use on ESC side. Didn’t know with Monster X esc 8s that it needed 10 h gauge. Love your videos. When I got into NPRC in December buying my first Drag Slash your videos helped get car right. Moving out of box stock and shooting for goals now.
What kind of body post are you using on your breakout chassis
Custom works heavy duty on all the cars.
Yo bro would that esc run a trinity monster horsepower 3.5t
sure wil
Bro what should I have on my amp limiter
I’ve never limited anything.
Bro that’s all I needed to here lol thanks cuz one love
love your content! is this the best esc you have tested for NPRC?
Most perfect yes but requires and advanced remote. If you don’t have a sanwa m17 or don’t want to buy one then you should look at the drk.
@@Dorkyand40 im going to try the radio link and see if i can get close m17 is outta my price range right now .. but it is an awesome radio .im running a 1406 6900 kv castle motor im gonna try and run a smaller pinion so i can wind the motor up .. and just got the mamba monster 8 s got it for 195 its going for 250 on amazon n0w the price shot up recently i was running the sidewinder 4 it should be a huge upgrade from the sidewinder esc
@@Dorkyand40 what would be a good motor to run over the 1406-6900 kv castle motor ?
All this stuff is going up big time.
@@sgtcrusher66I'm running a 4400 kv tp, with mmx 6s, and I've hit 2.63, but have to let off early and late because my front wheels are off the ground. All kinds of lift, yet to be able to put the power all the way out.
Congratulations on the New PB looks like I need to put some work in! Lol
Well we know how these things can go.
I have a question i have a hb. Xr10 pro 160. Is it beter to go with this castle
its a night and day difference but if you dont have a good radio to help tune with your wasting money. look at my sanwa m17 video
I Followed you and got me a Sanwa also
Nice. Well you’re ready to go then man.
Thank you so much your videos are very helpful waiting for your next update on settings and stuff like that
This weekend sir. Thanks for being part of the community here.
Hey guys. I have two fully built drag race cars for sale. One is a 3.5 turn with a mamba monster and the other is a r1 works with a tekin rs pro. Neither car has ever been used. I built them and now I don’t have the time to practice. I can send all the details to anyone. I want to sell to build a good crawler. These cars are ready to run. All someone needs is a radio. Receiver is a sanwa for the m17.
So should I go back to my castle esc 8s then and get rid of my maclan esc ????
Try it out. You need a radio for ramping though so if you have that you’re good to go.
Ok I'm here at the hobby store the best radio they have is a futaba 7pxr I'll buy it if it's any good
It’s a good one but not the best for our drag stuff. M17 or nothing at this point
What's m17 I don't understand ?
The sanwa m17 radio.
What about the mmx6s same fetures?
Almost. It’s older. Doesn’t have the cryogenic technology I don’t think. I’ve seen others using it though.
Great video bro! Love me some Castle! I wish Tekin would innovate their line a little more.
Yeah. Gonna be a while before we see new stuff due to product shortages and development time. Maybe spring will be great
Hey, Chad I have another question what's the highest lipo cell I can use on the tire warmers?
Depends on the warmer. Mine are 3 s and then my skyrc kit is 4s.
@@Dorkyand40 I grabbed the 1 from Beach Rc the warmer you talked about.
3s will be better? I don't want to burn this warmer up if I was to try 4s.
Mine is direct plug in so I’m pretty sure those are all 3s. The 4s ones that look like that usually have a dial or volt meter from what I’ve seen
Really good info, but need a magnified glass to see that small chart your working on
yeah one of those things you dont think of..so i did another..actually a few castle videos that show my settings. let me know which ones you have a question about..always willing to help
Hey, Chad question? This Mamba 8 has 6 caps shouldn't that be enough?
Doesn’t seem to be unless you’re talking about the external cap pack they sell being used too. It will cog off the line without it.
@@Dorkyand40 So it's best to add another cap pack then even tho the built-in caps are there.
Ye sir.
@@Dorkyand40 Thanks Bro.
Man it’s so crazy I have the mamba x I’ve been learning on and my car is completely different haven’t ran any good times yet cause I’m still learning but I take a lot of advice from u and @powermad I’m hoping to get there soon I have a drk I haven’t even hooked up yet
Lotta time and work snd unfortunately money. I’m really finding the sanwa m17 is a must for anyone wanting to go fast snd that’s another 600
I have the radio I’m learning it as well right now I’m runnin the drag slash but I have the exotek conversion and I have the mamba monster esc once I’m ready to convert it over to full carbon chassis but I’m not tryna get ahead of myself lol
What is the rods behind your front wheel for.
Side body mounts to keep the body from flapping during the run.
I have 1 of them Chad I need that 2.5. I saw a video of the 8s ESC I know it has more than enough to achieve good power and speed. Winter project. Lol
For sure. It’s the bomb diggity
@@Dorkyand40 I ran it in my X0-1 I sold the car and of course, I kept my Castle I know I could figure out something 4it. I want that Felony I was saving it for that I have the 1520 with it. I'm saving up for that car now it will be a while b4 I get that so I'm putting that in my drag concept chassis. Thanks for this video as usual you the man. I as well as your other subs appreciate you so much. You also saved me plenty of doe for not blowing my shit up lmaoooo.
Lol. Thanks Rufus. You’re a great guy to have around. It’s an honor to have you here. I’ll keep doing my best :)
How u zoom out of graph to get the rest of run ?
Right click and unzoom
Can you help me set up my mamba monster 8s I don't understand something s in the esc
Video of settings is uploading now.
Upload ing we're ?
Here. It’s on the channel now
Man I can't see it's way to small so I can't see any of the settings or changes that need to be done to more less have an idea 💡
How do I get the cheat to open up
Looking back at this . Why is the 2s r1 so much more powerful than a mamba monster 8s esc eventho the the 8s has way more potential to run more power
the way the r1 can control the hit with the custom curve and then apply the timing in multiple stages. with the castle it was more of a brute force method. we could only apply the timing based off rpm and we didnt have control really of how and when. in a game of tenths of a second this all matters
Castle power baby 👍🤯👍
Heck yeah
Ok so. Today I installed this esc using the sanwa m17 and a 3.5t motor. I’m not to sure what is going on but this thing is a turd. I’ve used some of the setting you started with. Using 22 timing. I even went to 45 and still a turd I know it takes time but
I take that statement back. I went back out and holy Sh&t it was a handful had to turn the remote down a bit.
Any can timing?

I just want to say thank you for your dedication and the attention to detail and the openness in the sense of showing us exactly what you run and results and for putting in the work to make it easy for us the ones that are getting back in the hobby
It’s my pleasure. I hide nothing and just try to keep pushing myself and the community to be better and faster. I’m as honest as I can be. Some racers even with old info from me so I don’t spread it.
