Default mamba micro pro ?

Hey guys, I usually run a sidewinder but was building a new berg and was wondering if a mamba micro pro can run on a berg with 40T handwound motors?

cc bec, punk dig, 3s lipo

Thanks in advance.
Dan

I run dual Mamba Micro Pros in my Bully on 3s with a BEC (45T motors).....the ESCs get warm, but not HOT. I would not try running BOTH motors on one Micro Pro ESC.

Hats the idea I got from talking to the castle guys. They seemed to think they were fine running one motor but running two might be pushing it a little too much.

why not just run duals? it wouldn't cost much more to buy the second mamba over a punk, and it would give you much more flexibility down the road.

I had all the stuff already when I posted the question, dig, motors, and such. I bought a micro for the size and as i was wiring it up, I started thinking that it might not handle it.

It's wired now and seems to be fine. gets a bit warm but not too bad. I haven't ran a full course to see how it does. I'll let you know.

The reason I'm not running 2 esc's is that I'm not planning on getting a 4 channel tx.

Thanks for all the help.
