Just ran my Truck earlier
The startup routine is much smoother at low speed. wayy less stuttering, the ability to change the motor direction is a big plus also- no more switching bullets:)

e-mike 05.09.2009 05:30 PM

just tried to up the timing and nada same cogging or hesitation when i climb something....tried other mmm and motor same thing...even my mamba max do the same....and with the 1.20 its butter:whistle:

e-mike 05.09.2009 05:43 PM

i will keep the 1.21...just because a can disable the BEEEPP song...:party:

Byte 05.09.2009 06:46 PM

Just one question about that software... I downloaded it a few minutes ago, but how should I install this thingy on the MMM? O.o Or do I just have to put the MMM with the USB on the pc, and then it's done?

EDIT: I can't install the software? He wants to download .net framework or something, but he says wrong size blablabla? I'm using windows XP. Help please?

q8-maxx 05.09.2009 07:24 PM

download the .net framework its free then you should install the cc software

I have just finished racing with SW, MM and MMM. With new firmware those systems seem to be more powerfull. Strange :neutral:

big greg 05.10.2009 12:50 PM

yea i put in on my MMM and 1y in the truggy and MM and tekin 2650 and both are smooth, i like the adjustable auto lipo

SpEEdyBL 05.10.2009 03:10 PM

I just installed it yesterday. The auto lipo adjustable cut-off was all that I could ever ask for. Thanks Castle!

Note to those who are getting more power after the update, the timing on my esc seemed to have reset itself to normal despite the fact that I had it set to 0 before the update. Timing adjustment is now displayed under the advanced settings tab.

Helly 05.10.2009 04:02 PM

Will the "auto-lipo settings" detect the number of A123 cell?

If it work for A123, the auto lipo adjustable cut-off can be a really good add for A123 !

snellemin 05.10.2009 05:22 PM

You don't need a lipo cutoff for A123's. But if you want to, just use the custom setting and set it for 2V per cell.

Helly 05.10.2009 05:54 PM

One of my A123 pack seem's bad just coz of a wrong cut-off setting...

i always switch 4S to 5S or 5S to 7S and i am not always near a computer to reprogramme it...

So if the "auto lipo cut off" detect A123 cell, it ll help! ^^

A123 auto cutoff is slated for the next release -- right now the Auto Lipo is only for standard Lipos.

You should set a "custom" cutoff for the A123 cells.

e-mike 05.10.2009 06:47 PM

so after reinstalled the new soft everything going flawlessly...anyway my issue was due by a wrong setting in my tx:whistle:so the controller seem to better understand the motor at low speed,,less cogg and i really love the option DISABLE THE BEEP!!!:yes:..and now when i go backward and apply trottle to go foward im able to stop the truck slowly..

now its time to have the mm pro for testing this new soft:whistle:

These 2 improvements will be awesome. That bug used to happen almost regularly on my savage and every time it did I would s*** my pants as I would think the controller had died again. It would work after releasing the throttle and trying again but I would always check the car over when it happened and I could never work out what was causing it.

Smoothness improvement will be nice as with the feigao startup wasn't always silky smooth. The medusa was better on startup.

Kcaz25 05.11.2009 10:11 AM

I've read the firmware beta info... and I'm confident that it will work in my standard setup. I installed the software and will be up and running as soon as my last parts come in this week. I will post the results...

badassrevo 05.11.2009 11:17 AM

No harm installing it on a MMM V1?
It runs so good now I don't want to chance anything going wrong.

I can't imagine anything smoother than my MMM V1 and Neu 1512/2.5d.

go dont be afraid install it...you will be surprise:yes:

C-5Quad 05.11.2009 01:47 PM

Ok im new to the MMM how do I set my lipo cut off to custom? I see auto an up to 18v but I plan to run 6s but I want my cut off at 3.1v per cell vs 3v how do I do this?

TexasSP 05.11.2009 01:59 PM

With the new 3.13 software under the auto lipo option is an option to change the auto lipo individual cell cutoff value.

Unsullied_Spy 05.11.2009 08:14 PM

It definitely has a smoother start-up now. I sheared a tooth off one of the gears in the tranny in my Rustler and it rather than cog like mad it overpowered my slipper clutch and smoked it :lol:

slimthelineman 05.11.2009 09:27 PM

it is smoother, i practiced for a while at the small indoor track down the road on saturday and purposely drove at low speeds and putted around the infield for a lap or two. was hard to say how much better it really was running on 4s instead of the usual 6, but the fact that i noticed it means it was alot better. never had problems with the old software (like to stay on throttle!) but once and a while at neutral it would "freeze" until you went back to neutral and tried again (once every 25 runs or so?). impressed with the added auto lipo cutoff as its what i use, but more interested in the graphing tab and wanting to know if a data logger is on the way?

Kcaz25 05.11.2009 11:30 PM

Just tested it! Its alittle smoother. I may post a video 2moro if that is a good idea.

I really like everything Castle is doing right now.

badassrevo 05.12.2009 05:16 PM

I just updated my Mamba Max and everything went well but I can't get my Mamba Monster V1 to recognize the Castlelink. It has worked well in the past and I have never had trouble before. Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated.

Has anybody tried to update a V1?

q8-maxx 05.12.2009 07:32 PM

yes I'm :)

GT35R 05.20.2009 06:36 AM

Castle Creations is the best. :yipi:

I was pleasantly surprised to see my 2200kV motor arrive today after the Traxxas EVX2
blew the caps yesterday just pressing the off button.
So back in with the single motor plate and MMM on the EMaxx and I turned my 3S packs
into 2S packs anticipating some big power.

Wow - no need for 6S with this badboy motor, and now I check the forum and theres an
update for MMM aswell!
The ability for custom cell cutoff V is essential - so many people must have wasted huge
$$ in replacing Lipos prematurely without this feature. It really annoys me that all my
plane ESC's are fixed to 3V/cell or sometimes less.

If anyone does have some bugs after updating (my throttle went all 'funky' at low speed)
I recommend just redoing the updates and all the settings as for me this has fixed
issues both times now.

Thank you CC, you're #1. XX :yes:
