I found a winning combo in my 8ight and Revo with the CC HV110 and the PiStix adapter.
The HV110 has handled everything I've thrown at it so far from 5S Lipo to 10S A123 and has worked great.
I'll pick up a MMM when it eventually comes out so I can compare the two but for now I have a great solution to my HV needs :yes:

thanks for sharing starscream!

good to hear the pistix works that well. No issues with reprogramming it after every ride?

I tried the HV110 and it failed. In another forum, the Heli guys are saying the HV85 and 110 are failing as well.

To be honest with all of you, Castle could've saved a lot of money by just making a controller for boat and car. That is why a few companies did it. They thought ahead of time and instead of coming out with a ESC for each use, they made a ESC for all use.

Hey Serum,
Yes its worked very well and I do not have to reprogram anything. I spoke to Andy and he said that you may have issues using channel mixing but I have not found this to be an issue.

lutach, it would be nice if you elaborated on what failed for you.
The HV's are made for Heli's so if it failed for Heli guys then I don't know what to tell ya.

I found that using a seperate rx pack was causing the system to restart and the esc to re-arm (strange..).
I setup the system with a BEC instead and its been working without issue ever since. I run this setup in both my 8ight and G2R and have not had a problem.

Here is a link for the heli guy that I was talking about:

There is a couple of other, but this one was the most recent. I have to say that the HV110 did work for a couple of runs and it is smooth. One day it just decided to let some smoke out.

one more pic

Holy smokes, what were you running this on?
Was that on your BPP geared for 165mph? :lol:
I wouldn't recommend running these hot. My HV's are ~100 deg F after a 20 min run.

The Heli guy issue sounds like an isolated incident as he reproduced the fried esc multiple times. He's running 10S at 85%, maybe he should just run 9S at 100% :intello:

I've been running my HV's for a few months anywhere from 5S lipo to 10S A123's geared for 45mph. So far, no problems at all.

The time I fired my HV110, I had changed the spur back to 65T and a 22T pinion. When I had the 51T spur and 30T pinion, the controller was a sample unit from the person who is doing or trying to do my 200A controller. I did run my truck before getting my DPR with one 36V pack and my Jazz 55/FUN600-17 combo and it ran great for some time.
