Default Mamba Max ESC questions

I have two crawler set ups with Mamba max ESCs and Pro4HD motors. One in a Wraith & one in a Yeti. Both have Castle BECs.

Why would one ESC fan come on as long as the system was on & the other fan only comes on when hot ? Note that nether system shuts down or has any other weird problems.

Is there a setting I'm missing in the programming ?

I've had the same, as long as the internal bec doesn't have a load, fan seems to always be off, big servo heats it up ?
My only idea.....

Servos are not using the internal BEC. Both systems are set up with Castle external BECs and servos only have signal wire to receiver.

I was curious on this as well. My MMP fan comes on more than I'd like but temp gauge shows it at 105-115* max all the time. I've been considering to unplug it and see how it goes...
