You should read back a bit, this has been discussed several times now.

FastXR 09.25.2009 09:24 AM

Is Mike going to offer a Pre-Order on the MMP, I just picked up a 1/10 W/GT pan car that an MMP would work nicely on and I missed the first Tower buy and don't want to wait til December for one and would rather support Mike anyway.

TexasSP 09.25.2009 09:52 AM

I would email Mike directly and ask him. I am sure he has some on order but only he knows if he will offer a prebuy or not.

FastXR 09.25.2009 09:56 AM

Good point, I will do that. I just thought if I posted it in this thread and got an answer then everyone would know and others might want in on it too.

RC-Monster Mike 09.25.2009 10:43 AM

Yes, I have them on order, but do not plan a pre-order. When we have items in stock, the site alows you to purchase them - just so much easier and less confusng this way. :)

nitrostarter 09.25.2009 10:47 AM

How many do you have ordered Mike?

Mamba Pro did have a late change -- but we are in full production today. :party:


Sorry I haven't been around to comment -- was in China for the last eight days.

kazuaki 09.25.2009 03:26 PM

Patrick,

What is the normal time from starting production (today) until someplace like Tower has them?

I'd try here first. I think Tower's presell is already gone.

gixxer 09.25.2009 05:05 PM

sounds good. I ordered one awhile ago from tower so hopefully they will be able to fill my back order. any update on what the actual change was?

snellemin 09.25.2009 05:15 PM

When will the beta peeps get theirs?

+1 on that questions.

TexasSP 09.26.2009 12:13 PM

Didn't PDC originally say the beta's would be some of the first out the door?

kazuaki 09.30.2009 01:02 AM

How we doing Patrick, are we there yet? :yipi:

Even when they are ready and have a whole production run done & hand fitted parts added & all escs bench tested and boxes done with bespoke foam lining & literature printed & distributors orders processed & escs packed away into boxes for shipping to them & hobby stores placing orders with the distributors & escs shipped from distributors to the hobbystores & hobby stores getting the escs added to their computer systems by a computer geek & all assosiated advertising sent out and uploaded too all assoisiated websites, it wilkl still be a while beofre you can actually buy the MMpro. Just becuase they are in production for a couple days doesnt mean you will be able to buy one for a few weeks still, as is the case with most products, and as was the case with the MMM when it finally arrived after 3-4 years of waiting.

Patience is a virtue; when they are available to order, you will see them in the stores. :smile:

Beta's were shipped months ago and I know one of them came to the 77375 area code and was sent back after a little testing.

TexasSP 10.01.2009 09:31 PM

I meant the production ones going to the beta guys, not the original beta models.

Yes, that's right. Beta testers have first crack at the production models. :party:

castle sensored 8th scale motors would be great. For now I plan on running the mamba pro with a tekin motor :gasp:.

phildogg 10.04.2009 01:42 PM

glassdoctor 10.06.2009 10:51 PM

yeah, the beta testers can keep the pro instead of sending it back in exchange for a production unit... but it's not right to be selling it at this point IMO

gixxer 10.07.2009 03:36 AM

I have to agree. Dont really think its right to sell it. Especially since they are not even on the market yet. Thats just my opinion though.

We'll find out who it is -- and he won't EVER beta test for Castle again. He signed an agreement not to disclose -- in fact the ESC doesn't even belong to him. All Beta units are the property of Castle Creations.

Unsullied_Spy 10.08.2009 03:58 AM

Patrick: One of us should buy that ESC and pull the S/N off of it and find out who it was entrusted to and take action (not sure what options are available) and the person who pays for it gets to keep it.

brushlessboy16 10.08.2009 06:44 AM

Thats magor BS.
