As far as I'm concerned, we should all be getting free fans from CC for at least a year if not longer. If they are $15 a pop I'll have to spend $15-30 a week on fans to keep one in it and running. Assuming 1 fan per race day (optomistic at this point) I will have gone thru the cost of the controller in 11 weeks.

What is the non-warrantee repair cost for the MMM? Anyone know. I'm just trying run the economics on this. If its say $75 for the repair (MM is $50) I can see it being cheaper to just run without a fan and hope it lasts 5 weeks in between melt downs.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Anyone thought of sending one to GriffinRu to let him work his magic. If he can " modify " the mmm as well as he has the mm, for a small price, you should have a bulett proof controller.....I have a brand new one in the box and am considering letting him experiment on mine.....


1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S

He chimed in not to long ago and was already tinkering with one. I think he mentioned something about putting the brains and built in BEC from a MMM onto the power board of a MM (with his mods of course) and creating a smaller form factor controller that would handle 4s or possibley even 5s. Perfect for a 1/8 buggy. I'm sure he is looking at what else he can do with it, but at that point he was only just starting to explore from what it sounded like. I'm sure he will come back and post some ideas once he gets to spend a little time on it.
