Mamba Monster ESC fan question

[Ducman82]

so the fan on my ESC does not want to come on anymore, so i checked it and the bearing is very, VERY choppy. so i think the fan motor is bad. anyone ever replace one on a mamaba?

people do replace em. scroll to the bottom of the page it tells you how to open the case. http://www.castlecreations.com/products/mamba_monster.html


i have to wonder if your fan isn't coming on as much because the cage you made looks lighter. did you make any other alterations to make it lighter or change gearing? i don't think my esc fan has come on once.

mine would come on when i would run it hard. i took the fan out and it is definitely trash. off to the hobby store i go!
