Other aftermarket ESC plates require double-sided tape to retain your valuable Castle Mamba X 8S ESC. Our ESC Cage for the Traxxas X-Maxx provides a solid, positive mount, locking your valuable ESC in place. Dual clamp plates prevent a massive slam from ejecting the ESC. Additionally, our cage allows the ESC to be run with or without a fan. It encases the ESC body only, leaving the fan free for easy removal for wet running. Furthermore, we left the front, rear and sides of the ESC open to allow critical air movement. This helps keep the ESC cool. An encased on / off switch mount and antenna relocation plate are also included.
Each RPM ESC Cage is molded in black and manufactured from our ridiculously tough blend of engineering grade nylons. Each ESC Cage is backed by our limited lifetime warranty against breakage. Don’t trust your investment to double-sided tape or zip ties.
Technical Notes: The RPM ESC Cage for the Mamba X 8S ESC works with Castle ESCs from the following Castle part numbers: #010-0165-00 & #010-0165-01. Our ESC Cage is guaranteed to fit the Traxxas X-Maxx running the stock #7724 Traxxas Receiver Box Lid and #7714 Chassis Support Braces only.
Motor and Motor Mount Notes: If the Castle Mamba X 8S ESC is used with a stock or stock replacement motor, no further aftermarket parts are required. Big block motors require an aftermarket motor mount. RPM has tested and guarantees the fit of our ESC Cage with motors with a maximum length of 4.44” (112.7mm) such as the Castle #060-0064-00 2028-800KV sensored motor but only when used with an Afrolucha #18010 motor mount. Almost any motor mount will work. However, the distance from the rear chassis mounting screws to the motor mounting surface must be no shorter than .126” (3.2mm) or if the motor is shorter than 4” (101.6mm).

We want to make sure your delivery goes smoothly, so here are some important details about our service:
- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.
- Depending on what you choose at checkout, your order will usually be delivered either the next working day or within 2 working days. For next day delivery please place your order before 2:00pm. Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
- If a product is marked as "Dispatched within 3 working days" delivery usually takes around 3 to 5 working days from when your order is placed.
- For customers in Inverness and other parts of the Scottish Highlands deliveries can take up to 2 working days even if you select next day delivery as couriers do not currently offer a guaranteed next day service to those areas.
