MMM v2 Success / Failure Poll

[BrianG]

OK, to be clear, let me know of any EXTRA MMMs you want me to adjust in the poll. Once I add each person's extra ESCs, I will edit their post simply to state (in the "reason for editing" section) it was done.

slim: I assume you already entered one of your failures, correct?

Brian, in post #2 and the poll, I put 1 working V2, I have a 2nd one with 4.5 hours on it still working fine, if you want to add a 2nd working for me to the poll

[slimthelineman]

yes i have

my v2 went up in flames in less than 5 min. A few wheelies out to the street, then forth of july colored flames before i even made one run.



Funny the fan didn't come on while it was burning, that should have been more than 150deg right ?

My MMM came in today and is working fine. I decided to run it "stock" even though I've placed an order for a BEC that should arrive next week if something happens. As well, my NEU 1515 2.5d hasn't arrived yet either, so I'm using an Align 600L with a Tekno conversion/clutch on 6S. Still have wheelies on demand and way more power than I can use..

shouldn't these things be bench tested before they go out?

cc should do a better range test....''PUFF''a controller just to power on not a normal thing.....

I have had 1 v2 so far - after 15 minutes running hard it's still working normally and I just added it to the poll.

I haven't plugged it into a castle link yet.

I'll respond if it blows up.

Well. My V2 died. It was acting wierd the last time I ran it. Not firing up the first time I flipped the switch and random crap like that. I went to turn it on tonight and it fired up and ran for 20 seconds and then shut down. I can get it to fire up randomly, but what it looks like is the BEC is putting out around 3v rather than the 5.5v its supposed to put out so the reciever cuts in and out just at the very edge of what it can run at. The servo is slow too when it is actually fired up. The V2 lasted one race day and 1 short 2 pack practice session before the BEC acted up.

So... the V1 that has been working for quite a while now(probably 6-7 hours of run time on it) is going back in. I'm glad I didnt send it in for a v2 replacement.

I hope they get this figured out. SOON! Its going back to CC Monday morning.

I'm just about ready to go back to the old heat moded Quark I have. At least I can count on that ESC. It has many many hours of reliable service.


Anyway I already voted sucess.... Please deduct 1 positive vote for a negative vote.

both of my MMM's are working so far.....I've got a v1 that has countless hours on the track...8ight Neu 1515 1/y/f 4s 5000 thunderpower lipo.........and I've got a v2 in a Muggy 9xl 5s 4800 elite lipo.......that only has afew hours on it but is still working......my V1 has the fan and case mods....my v2 has zero mods.....
