Tne only bad part of te solution being new software is that in order to update a MGM it needs to be sent back to them. Its not like the Mamba where you can just download and install your own software update.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly

It should be doable with the PC software, USBcom and cc_02 cable, there is an option in the controller software. If only they would give us the updates for download.

Ya, they definitely could do it, it’s a question of them wanting to. I would require them updating the PC software to allow it.

I've just order a trusty Mamba max, anyway, i only run on 4s and the main reason why i had buy a MGM it was the fact that MM oculd not run the Neu motor but now, with the software upgrade on the MM, i'am sure that it's a way better solution than the MGM. And when the MMM will be disponible, i'll order one too.
My MGM will stay sitting on the shelve for a will, and maybe drop in a 1/10 conversion latter.

Too bad for a $$$ 300.00 contoller..

Two thumbs up MGM

Son of a !@$#%#@!^!!!!!

Glad I got that off my chest...

I just went to take my Savage out. Setup the controller to reduce RPM, 6s Lipo (my lipo savaer won't be in for a few days) and Auto Tune. First attempt had to run home and get some pliers because the slipper was just spinning. Tightened slipper, hooked up battery, put on body and set her down. Pulled the throttle a bit and I hear a nice sizzling sound and poof, there is something coming out....

Stop the truck, pull the lid, cut the power. I plugged it back up to my laptop to see if it would connect (I have no idea why it mattered) and it did, settings were there and still correct.

My MGM is toast! I am so frustrated!! I guess I'll have to ship it off and maybe get it back by the end of summer.

It is so strange because literally nothing changed except I tightened the slipper. When it fried I was just softly starting it, not the usual throttle induced wheelie.
