The only thing I can think of is that before running it yesterday, I dropped the punch control even lower (limits power more), changed the timing to whatever the next is below neutral for cooler temps, and raised cutoff voltage to 19V. Then I ran a few minutes and died.

I thought this was over, guess not. No more smileys either. At this point in time, I think it's safe to say that the switch to brushless was EXTREMELY STUPID, and I should have stuck with nitro. When nitro breaks, you can SEE it, and FIX it. When an ESC breaks, you don't know why, and you have to send it back. And it's like a bad surprise when it happens. BL/LIPO sucks! There, I said it!! I want my nitro setup back! I'll take regular maintenance over waiting forever for parts that work anyday. What a waste of time and money this was!!

Anybody want to buy my setup???

End rant.
yeah ,being a noob to BL conversions,i'm feeling your frustrations from all ive read on the MMM failures...i pretty much have put all my BL conversion patrs orders on hold ...unfortunatley i just got the MMM v2 a week ago and my Nue 1515 motor for my CRT X1 truggy build and i'm afraid to spend anymore on the build ....LOL...i think i know if i finish it i will have to power up the MMM and expect failure ...glad i havent put my nitro stuff on ebay yet
