IMHO the mamba stuff is more for "bashers" instead of racing, not that it's not a descent ESC, while the RS is more of a racer speedo. But keep in mind that it depends on the motor(s) you plan on mating with it, as the Tekin does allow for use with Sensored motors which tend to be smoother on-throttle.

was recently in canada and from what i could see the mmpro is a popular speedo over there. i have the mamba monster and the micro pro, they seem very good, both sensorless only though but you do need the castle link lead and software otherwise you will find it difficult to set up

Agreed quite difficult to set up without the lead, but not impossible. I have a mmpro in a b44 with an epic 6.5 works a treat. If you want it now get the mamba.
