MMM runs Novak better than Novak - 09.02.2008, 10:06 PM

I just tried my MMM for the first time today and I am glad to report that my HV 4.5 motor ran better on the MMM esc than it did on the HV-maxx esc.

Throttle was just as smooth and so were the brakes, only cogged once, but instead of getting about 12 minutes of runtime like i did with the novak esc, I got over 15 minutes of runtime, taking temp readings every now and then.

The only thing I noticed was that the throttle would cut out for split seconds at a time occasionally during acceleration, but I believe this is a radio interference issue. My mamba max does this some times and rarely, my novak esc does it as well.

Overall I am very satisfied. Everything ran about 10 degrees cooler and that was with 10 degrees timing. Gonna try 0 degrees.

Motor 172
Esc ??? fan only came on once breifly during run so 150? Case was 106
Battery 118

Setup is the 8ight in my signature geared with a 9 tooth pinion.


Check out my custom converted 8ight:
