**MMM vs Xcelorin 1/8 -** 10.19.2008, 12:02 PM

Guys, although the xcelorin 1/8 hasn't been out for long has anyone ever had the chance to compare the two side-by-side? Feature wise I've been examining both. The xcelorin looks very promising on paper

I've pasted some technical specs taken from each manufacturer's site:

MMM

Cells: 6s LiPo
Resistance: 0.0003 ohms per phase
Brake: Proportional with adjustable curve
Reversible: Yes - with lockout
Cooling fan
Programmable via PC
Dimensions: 2.2" x 1.9" x 1.4"
Weight w/Wires: ESC: 121g
Connector Type: 6.5mm bullet

1/8 Xcelorin

160A continuous current with 800A peak
Prewired Losi EC5 power connector
Accommodates a 3s-5s-cell LiPo
Cooling fan
Optimized for Spektrum or legacy radio systems
Internal and programmable BEC
Forward/Brake with Reverse or Forward/Brake settings
Forward and reverse throttle limiting available
Four LEDs to indicate functions
Three preset drive profiles: 3S, 4S and 5S
Programmable via PC and Programming Card
Includes three pre-programmed profiles for convenience
Adjust brake and throttle curve settings with the simple-to-use graphical interface software

Just a small footnote: Didn't see it on Castle's site but on Amainhobbies they rate the MMM at 'Continuous: 120 Amps'. Wonder if this is accurate?
