Actually you might be right about the 4s, but 14 cell is def out w/ warr. What is not clear is if some n00b breaks it (say on 4S) and sends it back for repair saying he was using an XL sized mtor on a MT. They do not limit the ESC to just CC motors, so they have to allow some room for other motors but how far that is IDK.

Its more a warning to other users. Its looks like the MMaxes are starting to get pretty popular for such an app, but I'd hate to see a n00b buy it, abuse it (like not run a ubec) and break it just b/c they saw someone else do it on the internet and not really understand what they are gettnig in to.
