Patrick, any word from Lee on the MM upgrade plan?

[YogyBrushless]

why is the pro cheaper than the MM ? shouldnt the ability to run 6s make it more expensive ?

Better - - Cheaper -- Faster --

That's the game man.

The Mamba Max is a five year old design - - MM Pro uses new technology, new FETs, and has less hand labor to assemble. All that makes it less expensive.

Patrick - Any update on the upgrade programme? I have a MM in for a while as it was toast and I wondering if I could send some $'s or Pizza and it could come back as a pro? Thanks

PS Any change to the drag brake in brushed? Any way of making it stronger?

Mmmm pizza, or maybe deli....

The upgrade program (if we decide to do it) will be discussed in the next marketing meeting. I'll let you know as soon as we decide.

Last I heard, the first run of MMP is scheduled for run the week of Aug 31st.

wow! its been five years already? wow!

I designed it five years ago... Been on the market about four years.

I hope the trade in thing happens. I could use the improvements with the MMP.

Haha, i like the drawing on tower hobbies, the mamba that ROARs. I like the pun.
I too want to see a replacement program to take dead MM and turn them into working MMP and a alive MM to MMP program.
also, dont take this as a repuation killing question, but with testing, have you seen many failures similar to the MMM? feel free to just ignore the question if you don't want it answered.

We should have a program to upgrade the MM to MMPro -- The cost will be the same as non-warranty replacement on the MMPro.

We haven't seen any failures on the MMPro in beta testing. (that I know of...)

Great news - Can you just keep my MM replacement until the programme comes into place?

Thanks

[J57ltr]

Just out of curiosity how many beta test units were sent out?
