Default Castle motor esc any good

Just finished my bomber kit, would the below motor esc be a good choice? Mostly want to use it as a rock racer.
thanks

looks good, may wanna look into the tekin Roc412HD for motor, but castle makes killer stuff also.

I have the Mamba X. It had been great so far. I felt the 1410 3800 SCT motor was too much for the chassis. But others on here put bigger motors in the bomber all the time. Not sure how much less torque the 1406 series has over the 1410. I am running a 1406-2850 motor now and it is mich better. It is not wheel standing itself onto it's lid all the time now.

My $.02,

Never use Castle motor. But love my Castle mamba extreme ESC and Holmes hobbies puller pro 2200kv motor on my heavy Wraith. I found the PullerPro quite reliable even under extreme load and punishment. Yea, good motor though

The ESC for sure is good to go. However can't say much about the 1406-3800, haven't seen that combo in Bonbers yet really.

I would look at the ROC 412 3100Kv. The new HD series are the same price and "element" proof as well.

I run the Mamba X and 2400kv motor. Complete overkill but it runs super cool so I guess overkill has it's merits
