Those L motors can pull some serious amps when they are not geared properly. I figured an XL would pull the same or better as an L if it was geared for the same mph. I had the 7XL with 20/68 gearing on my emaxx which is what everyone was running the MM with on 4S. So ya the controller is not going to be as beefy as an MM and may not run the bigger motors, but waterproof it is.

The MMM isn't nearly as water resistant as the MM, I lost two MMM's last winter from a tiny little bit of snow getting in the esc... I was only running on the road, not baja'n the deep snow, when all of a suddin, magic smoke! Then the very next day the same thing happened (with another new MMM), magic smoke...

Meanwhile I can practally submerge any of my MM's... Got one MM thats been running strong, year round since 2006!

We need REAL WATERPROOF 120-200A (CONT) BL ESC's and Rx's!!!!

The easiest way to waterproof them is to encase them in thermal epoxy. They will still dissipate heat as well as provide water protection.
