Nice, sounds like I've got some updating to do.

Congrats CC, now you are perfect. ;)

(well minus the deadband adjustments.... got leave something for improvement...)

BrianG 08.04.2009 09:24 PM

Actually, they have that too...

lol, where have you been? Get out from under that rock man! :lol:

And just so you know, they also now have the ability to change motor direction through the link instead of having to swap wires.

Haha. Yea, he is way behind.

You can also turn off the power on reminder beep if for some reason you want too. It is supposed to have better low end operation also. I could tell a difference when I updated mine.

Data-logging on the MMM would be awesome, hopefully they revise the design to allow for that.

No no, not the radio deadband, I mean the LVC deadband... really I should say alarm tolerance. DB was not the right word.
I know they can't have that...

and yea, I haven't bothered to update in a while. Its a pain to get to the usb port for the MM, and my MMMs work well enough I can't be bothered.

is it plausable to make an adition to the next firmware to pump up the BEC voltage to a desired amount?
some of these new fancy shmancy JR servo's have the ability to run 7.4v and the spektrum RX's can take up to 9.6v i think so if one could pump up the BEC voltage to 7.4v (or 8.4v since that is same as a full 2s lipo RX pack) i reckon it'd be very cool.

i think they are one set ahead of you on that one :)

Definitely That would be awesome! The Losi 1/8 esc's have that option.

Gotta be careful there. Pumping up the BEC voltage also makes the servo torquier/faster, and as a result pulls more current, and may exceed the BEC output current rating...

All good suggestions.

Adjustable fan turn-on temp is a good idea. I'll put that in the schedule for the next Mamba firmware release. We'll just make it so that the default temp is the HIGHEST temp allowed, and allow the user to set a lower trip temperature.

Arct1k 09.14.2009 05:34 PM

and the drag brake for brushed motors? Pretty please beta...

Nice, Patrick I really like the way people can just ask you for a feature and when it makes sense (and the hardware allows) you just put it in.
Great customer relations.

We aim to please. :angel:

Arct1k 09.14.2009 09:18 PM

and sell lots of controllers - Nothing like keeping the customers happy...

Now if I could just finish decoding the settings file....
