I want my MMM! :)

glassdoctor 02.02.2008 12:12 AM

It's just "Monster Mamba" according to Castle's artwork.

All this time we've given it the "MMM" tag... and it's just going to really be a "MM"!!! So we gotta get Castle to add "Max" to the product name, lol.

Oh well... it's still MMM to me.

I would gladly take a CC 100A 12S controller any day of the week.
I use the HV110 and the only thing missing is motor brakes.

Cute,

They're more like the far right and too busy looking for the weapons of mass destruction to remember what it was supposed to be called.

I think I'm going to pass on the MM or MMM or WMD or whatever its called until they offer something that can handle atleast 8S Lipo.

Unless my HV110 blows up, I'm good

JERRY2KONE 02.02.2008 05:58 AM

Hype.
 
I am willing to bet that a very large number of us will purchase the MMM just because of the need for change, and the hype:lol:. Plus of course there will be some that will love it, and some that will bash it:yipi::diablo:. Like the saying goes you cannot please everyone. Just the fact that CC is doing something that has not been done before will put them on top for the time being, until someone else knocks them off. From all of the chatter out there I think there will be a few competitors out there jumping on the band wagon. Even if there are some little differnces it will be fun testing and comparing them for ourselves. Just to have something new and different out there is cool.:party: It looks like this is going to be a good quater in 2008 for the RC community:party:

The website still say mamba monster max.

Arct1k 02.02.2008 10:03 AM

It is just Monster Max - This is actually from their software - The Monster Max firmware was in the 3.04 release of castle link.

To us I'm sure it will always be the mmm though :)

Ok decoded the settings DB as best I can for now - I need to look at the voltage cutoff as picing up multiple settings - here it is for now:

does that mean a HV version will be available.

Dagger Thrasher 02.02.2008 12:23 PM

Thanks for that Arct1k...some very insteresting stuff in there! Mostly the LiPo cutoff values. Maybe they're just values for the existing HV controllers...I don't know. Might mean something though...

phildogg 02.02.2008 12:49 PM

looks promising anyway.
