At least since it moved to the 21st, my credit card will have rolled over to the next month already.:mdr:

I can't offer the pre-sale (not so nice of Castle for stealing these initial sales from dealers IMO), but I have the controllers listed and folks should be able to sign up to be notified when they come into stock(should among the first). :)

Hip Hip Horray!

Thanks, Mike!

Excellent!

What's the advantage of the "pre-sale"? Does that just mean you get it sooner?

You get it sooner and cheaper, at the cost of dealers like Mike losing sales.

Hmmm, that's kind of what I thought. Maybe waiting another week won't be a big deal at this point.

You get it sooner. Mike has it listed in his store at the MAP price for $170. The same as you will pay to castle. It just tht castle is offering a Pre-Sale for those who order direct from them and they will ship to the direct purchase customers who preordered on the CC website before they even ship to the dealers like RC-Monster.

Very cool for those end users chomping at the bit for one, but not so nice to do to the dealers that have had multi thousand dollar orders already placed for this anticipating the initail wave of demand.

I'll wait and get mine from Mike.

J.

Ah, didn't notice that. Beauty, cause it makes it even easier to wait a week to support Mike.

I agree- mike can have my money, although it will be via some nice American person who understands about my not wanting to give HMC&E my money :whislte:

I hope to hear good reviews too- that will be the deal maker or breaker...

Coming to the UK at the end of may...

i know i read it somewhere but i cant find it

Q....when will the esc. be available with the motor

Ok, will be ordering from Mike since he has the pre-order and also I can easily wait for a few weeks since I already have a perfectly functioning 16018. Hopefully he will be doing the bullets and deans too! I aint too good with the soldering iron u know? ;)

Not ETA yet but not far a while. While on the subject. Are the combos going to be with the neu motors or with the neu/castle motors which are still in development?

Hope you are getting 2499 of the 2500 :party:

Dreams are finally becoming reality, I guess.

One!
 

If he gets one that would be fine as long as it is the one that I purchase.:lol:

Hopefully Mike will have a large stock in hand, because from the noise on here there are a lot of guys planning to make double and triple purchses. This is going to get interesting...:yes:

check it out http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LNUWH2&P=G

Usually Tower will put a price up and then it might change.

that's a good sign. tower has some parts that i need too. maybe i'll order the MMM from there. (Quick) Postage ain't cheap to aus.

I will wait and get mine from Mike, since he has been so pivotal in the 1/8 brushless revolution. My MM is doing great after the firmware upgrade and Tower gets enough of my money already.

i want to know when i can get the MMM from Mike so i can order all my other stuff from here. motor, gears, etc.

plus, if i order from mike and get everything i need, then go to tower or CC, i will end up paying the same for shipping and everything if it is 15 bucks more or whatever..

Thanks and I cant wait mike!! id love to get my project rolling with the MMM!

Just Sharing.
 

I just wanted to share this for those who did not believe. I recieved notice this morning that it shipped. So I to will finally have the MMM in a few days. Considering the thousands of dollars that I have spent in this hobby in just the last few years I try to get the best deal possible whoever that may be. I am happy to have RCM on our side and will make a lot of purchases from here, but this was just too good to pass up.

Life
 

Thanks linc:whistle:. What can I say:oops:? How can one pass up a deal like that:yipi:? Plus if you note I placed the order just before they raised the price and they had to give me the original listed price that was posted for the first day:na:. Besides they are raking in millions as big as they are:mdr:. Has anyone gotten one cheaper?:lol:

Yeah, when I backordered it didn't know how much freight would be so it just went through as nothing but I ended up cancelling my back order

Holy ship batman! At that price you can get a MMM real Neu combo as cheap as the MMM fake Chinese Nue combo when it eventually comes out!

I just got an email from them too. Mine is shipping. Now I just have to get a motor and a car to put it in. Sold all 8th scale stuff recently.

Yippee mine is on the way too. I got it for 121 as well. Got to love that super saver club and promotional discount. Got free shipping too. Cant wait :mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr::mdr:
