A China made controller will be cheaper than the US made controller for a long time, until the yaun (I think) overtakes the $. Having the dollar lose power in the world economy is strange, but it is happening. I know it will be good for the US economy in the long run though, as it will bring more business into the country.

I just can't imagine what kind of KV motor you would put in a 12s system - it would have to be pretty dang low. I'm sure we'll be seeing it in the future though.

I have a Neu 1521/1.5Y that can handle 10S and it will spin at around 44000rpm with 12S. The point of a controller that can handle 12S or more is to use less AMPs. It will give you better run times, plus you can use good 2200-2500mAh packs. This is the main reason why I keep asking for it.

I see - well, that's awesome. I've always been worried about the higher rpms when you go to the HV stuff. But your logic is exactly why I am going with the 6s in my XT8 so I'm with you there. Reduce the amps and increase the voltage for better efficiency and temp control. I just didn't know how far to take it.

It's just "Monster Mamba" according to Castle's artwork.

All this time we've given it the "MMM" tag... and it's just going to really be a "MM"!!! So we gotta get Castle to add "Max" to the product name, lol.

Oh well... it's still MMM to me.

Cute,

They're more like the far right and too busy looking for the weapons of mass destruction to remember what it was supposed to be called.

I think I'm going to pass on the MM or MMM or WMD or whatever its called until they offer something that can handle atleast 8S Lipo.

Unless my HV110 blows up, I'm good

Hype. - 02.02.2008, 05:58 AM

I am willing to bet that a very large number of us will purchase the MMM just because of the need for change, and the hype. Plus of course there will be some that will love it, and some that will bash it. Like the saying goes you cannot please everyone. Just the fact that CC is doing something that has not been done before will put them on top for the time being, until someone else knocks them off. From all of the chatter out there I think there will be a few competitors out there jumping on the band wagon. Even if there are some little differnces it will be fun testing and comparing them for ourselves. Just to have something new and different out there is cool. It looks like this is going to be a good quater in 2008 for the RC community

Actually it's all of them... it's just easiest to spell/type democrat than republican.. plus it's easier to make fun of democrats for some reason.

It is just Monster Max - This is actually from their software - The Monster Max firmware was in the 3.04 release of castle link.

To us I'm sure it will always be the mmm though :)
