Sounds good artur, keep us posted! I am still running the modded mm you sent me in my revo, it works well and stays very cool. Startup and overall feel is much improved over the stock mm.

I can't wait for the MMM I have no patience.

But whenever it comes out Ill be sure to grab one.

GriffinRU - I noticed your from MD. What part? I'm in Mount Airy. I work at Northrop Grumman in Sykesville. You sound like you know your stuff. I try to get me EE buddies to get into the RC's but they never seem interested.

Just resurected mustbnitro's dead MM

Long story short, the solder from one of the caps was touching one of the buss leads. It actually had 12 burnt fet's and 2 that were cracked from taking the heat sink off. It has a few lifted traces and 3 of the copper sleeves that interconnect the pcb were pulled out so it took a little creative soldering.

I didn't keep the mod though, didn't want to spend the time if it wasn't going to work and I'm not taking it apart again to try. So at this point it just has the better caps, diode, and deans wet noodle wire. Think I'll attach a fan and call it good.

You can do it

Nowadays broken Mamba's on eBay have some value...
