i send in my mmm on monday you get it wednesday. its now monday the following week i have not been contacted about any issues like i was told i have not been contacted about the condition of my item.

Now i come on a forum where castle has there own section about there products and the one person says theyre not posting because of product bashing


Im losing faith in castle as i read through this thread you released a product that has failed on a lot of people step up to the plate and fix the problem and i bet the product bashing would stop

Hold on, whats this thread about? I thought it was about patrick leaving the forum, not about people who lost points because their car wasn't running.

Do you want castle to stay or go? I couldn't figure it out from your post... having castle leave certainly won't fix your buggy, it will just keep you in the dark on how long itll be till its fixed.

******Reality CheckTime******

We are all palying with tiny cars! This is a HOBBY! If you are not having fun in this hobby, it is time to quit and move on to something else, like quilting!

******End of Reality Check Time******

I will say that I always work with the idea that I should be having a good time with r/c. If I start getting pissed (or pissy like some people) it is time to go find something else to do. Playing with tiny cars is not everything in life. If your MMM craps out, send it back, and enjoy some time with a family member, or friend. Go see a movie, have dinner, or drive around in the red light district. Or take a quiet evening to memorize the kv values for all of the 15 series neu motors, or get a tattoo of series and parallel wiring for future reference. Just do something!

Even I'm not that much of a nerd/geek! Although I had thought about an armband tattoo that consisted of tiny binary 0's and 1's that would decode to my son's name. To the casual observer, it would like an odd tribal pattern until they were close enough to see the detail.

No nitro for me... I have the magical ability to keep all of my electric r/cs running. Only smoked one esc and that was a modded MM during some testing on 5s way overgeared. And that was due to a rock in the spur.

I do have a few buddies that have nitro trucks, and it is always fun to give them tuning tips while I drive an electric... I can hear what the little nitro engines are doing, and can usually get one perfectly tuned by the time it warms up. I just cannot stand the noise or the smell. Those are the two "realistic" points that nitro lovers always bring up. A nitro engine does not sound or smell like anything other than a nitro engine, so it is realistically equivalent to itself, not a real engine.

Having a dozen trucks does not hurt my chances of having something r/c to play with, and the other 20 or so will always be waiting for me to fix/mod!
