It should hopefully make you feel better that both of my MMMs are working great on 5s lipo and 6s a123 packs.

(One is being shipped to SuicideNeil tomorrow, but we decided to test it out here first to make sure it's one of the good ones. It is. :-))

It sure does seem that if they are going to die, they do it quickly. Almost every post I have read about a MMM dying has been during the first pack. Even during the first few minutes of use.

So at this point it seems if yours is working it should stay working.... we hope.

Sucks. Sucks sucks sucks sucks. And living in a country where infrastructure is low on the governments agenda it's a 5h1tfight to get it back there and back again. Sorry to hear it MBTim.

Our infrastructure ain't that bad, in some places it is just because they are so remote. Thankfully I live in the infrastructure capital of Australia and my parcels move rather quickly. I just wish I had brought my esc into work so I could have sent it off already.

Oh dear I'm getting worried now. Mine should be here today but flight delays means that I will only get to argue with customs tomorrow. I'll put it in my buggy first & do some torture test & see whether I have send it back. Backup plan should be shipping soon from Mike's HQ soon I hope.

I just need to vent a little as I am pretty upset at the moment. I received a package from CC today but it was for some bullet plugs I ordered some time after I made the pre order for the Monster. I chose EMI shipment for both orders but somehow the bullets were shipped using the correct method & the esc is coming to me using air mail. It could take a month or more for the item to arrive & sometimes they don't arrive at all ! :cry: That's why all my purchases online use EMI or equivalent to avoid any disappointments.

Looks like I'll be waiting a few more weeks. Gonna be back in Perth last week of the month for a few days for family reunion & probably by the time I return the thing is still stuck somewhere in limbo with no means to track it. Feel like doing something like this now :slap:

In addition, still no news on the unit i ordered from Mike too :cry:

Ok end of rant. Sorry about that.

Regards,
Joe Ling

Suggestion.
 
We all feel your pain man. There was a thread a few days ago on here from one of you guys down under trying to coordinate a group order for the MMM to ease the shipping issues. Since there seems to be quite a few of you in that area I would think that you guys could ban together maybe meeting up once a month or so, and place group orders through a business address and hopefully easing the whole customs and some shipping cost issues. It sounds like you guys have some real problems with your postal system getting items from outside of Ausiland. Sorry to hear of all the problems. Good luck with that.

I think the Aussies are on the ball as far as shipping & customs are concerned. It's poor me in Malaysia that's staring at the post box :cry:

Post parcels usually take around 7 - 14 week days to get to Australia which isn't to bad

JERRY2KONE 05.15.2008 07:19 AM

Sorry About That.

I was confused about where you were writing from. Even so you cannot be the only R/C guy in malaysia. Too bad there is not some international postal system that charged everyone the same (Reasonable Rate) no matter where you are located.

joeling 05.30.2008 03:43 AM

Well, I'm a little late to the party but I finally received my Monster today. Had to get my office assistant to haggle with customs before I could get the package. Plugged it into the PC & did some inital programming. Fan is spinning, amber light on the Monster is on & the Castle link green light flashing. This is a good start yes ? Gonna test it this weekend of there is no rain.

Thank u Castle & bossman Patrick.

Regards,
Joe Ling

PS : Is there anyway to coax CC into selling me MM plastic bottoms ? Managed to kill 2 of them & Christy at Castle says not selling :cry:
