Info on the MMM from the I-Hobby show

[captain harlock]

Tekin's aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllll the way......
I've never tried a tekin products befor, but I know that they are one of the oldest companies in the rc industry with experience that puts others to shame. They even left the hobby in the past and they are back again which I believe is a response for all the fans around the world who were calling them back.
I'll wait for the RX8 to come out.

WHAT!!!!! I didn't think, they could do that with a Neu. The motor in question is a 280.00 motor, i know , i got a 1515/2.5d (1700kv)

Yeah! The combo and the price blow me away!!

Changes my plans, just going to have to wait some more (sure hope timing is accurate)!!

Patrick as in Patrick del Castillo, President Castle Creations, he started posting on RCCA early in Aug.

I realize they have a credibility prob being so late with this one and others before, but I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume this is what he intends will happen.

i couldn't agree more, although i am quite happy with my MM (have a 2nd one coming any day now - the new one).

i do love tekin though, and i'll most likely wait for theirs. i have an olllllllld Tekin Titan that i used in my Clod crawler, and it works flawlessly (brushed, of course ). i would guess the Titan is about 10 years old now. i also used a Tekin Rebel with zero problems.

edit: wait... didn't get through all the posts. $300 for a MMM/neu combo? holy crap batman. if that ends up being true....sorry tekin...

I just got VERY reliable information, that the motor that will come with the MMM combo will not be produced by STEVE NEU motors. The motor that will come with the combo will be patterend after the 1515-1y but will not be a true NEU MOTOR . It will be a copy made another company, & not NEU MOTORS.
