Hmmm, just give me your personal IP address, I'll key the software to destroy any controllers plugged into your computers.

OK, it's 70.141.107.6

Anyway, a higher price is ok. It would be a steal and even double or triple the price of the MMM...

$400 dollar range not a problem here either; I paid $375 for the MGM.

Patrick,

How hard would it be to put some kind of basic logging like the MGM? Amps, RPMs and Temp.

I liked hongkong more when it was a british colony....

That really does suck though, in this day and age accountability and blame are big issues, yet they can do what they like pretty much, highly unfair.

On the price front, I paid $540 for my hvmaxx system about 3-4years ago, so a proper Hv esc priced at $300-400 would be a bargain; I wouldnt touch schulze with a barge pole.

You gotta admit, Schulze's make decent space heaters when they flare up though. Ever see Serum's Schulze hall of shame?

This all sounds reasonable to me especially considering the performance. I have been wanting to do a 5th scale conversion and this is what I will need. I think the 12s version would be more in line with my needs/wants as I want to keep my power in the variables of 3's so my batteries work across my models.

Damn.. I was looking for an 8s controller, but I really think 2000A surge isn't enough, can you make it bigger? ;)

Joking aside though, what kind of amperage ratings are they? are these your usual massive under ratings? I can't imagine how anyone would pull more than 325A continuous... they'll need some mightily enormous batteries to not only deliver that continuously, but to run for more than a few seconds lol... Maybe in an actual car? Thats and awesome idea. now I want to do a 1:1 conversion lol

Pretty much the same kind of ratings we normally use. The 40V FET I am using for this design has similar resistance (2 milliohm) to the FET we are using on the Monster -- and the 60V FET is a 6 milliohm FET (about triple the 40V FET.)

The surge rating is the .6 second rating (mostly for startup.)
