Has anyone heard about the software update for V3? I heard from Castle that a big part of the failures was due, in part, to software. They had said that the newest version would be released this week. I have an unused V2 that I am waiting to use once it gets the updated firmware. (I was soooo tempted to throw it in my E-Revo this past weekend and run it without the updated software, but I managed to resist!)

Has anyone heard anything more about the release of this new firmware?

I beg to differ on that one, most people on here are capable of making an informed decision on whether or not they choose to use their MMM's. From people posting their experiences on this forum at least they can decide if, with their intended set up, they're likely to experience problems. If you know your only going to be running a conservative set up you'll probably run your MMM and update it as and when it's available.
If you know your planning to run a set up which people have experienced problems with you may decide to hang back and wait for the update before using it.
Personally I chose not to wait and went with MGM, but despite the problems one of the things that is apparent from this thread is that there are a lot of people who have faith in CC to resolve the issues and provide them with a good product at a reasonable price. When the issues are finally resolved there's a fair chance I shall buy one as it will be interesting to see how they compare with what I'm running now.

I say chance it!! Dude, throw that thing in the Revo and hope for the best I've been running my V2 for months now on 6s. Unlike Phatmonk though my fan is dead. Well, that and I don't pee in my gas tank
