I may have. It just means a sloppier look and longer wires for me.

I have six MMMv3's and all of them have bullets directly to board, you might wanna call castle becuase if you really do have a V1 that's a ticking time bomb waiting for go off!

I sent them an email. I'll see what they say.

my v3's all are bullets straight to the board? I kno castle has a new run now with different FETs maybe they changed it again?

a 1520 performs really nicely on 5s or 6s... 4s i believe is not enough voltage for desired speeds

[nuz69]

Even in 4S a 1520 would run cooler and better for the same speed, because the widings are exactly the same, the motor is just longer and then has more torque per amp, o you can gear up to keep the same speed as the 2200Kv, and the motor will consume the same current (same 4S same power), but will run cooler.

Hmm...might split the difference and try a Neu-Castle 1518 1Y 1800kv

High speed is not my aim for this one as it will be my dirt basher and maybe used for a little MT racing....

On 4S, and preferably keeping my 48T spur gear, any thoughts on a good start for pinion size?

I use 2200 w/4s geared 15/46.With truggy tires.

Crikey, really? That seems geared high to me? My lighter 8T is on 2200kv, 4S and geared at 14/48 as much higher and things got a little warm?

I was thinking of 12/48 on the mugger as a start and then go maybe down one from there is too hot?

Very very crappy video (no cameraman available at the time) of the first run of my E-Muggy. :)

I love the look of the muggy, but the neu-cc 1518 is a 1Y not 1.5Y ;)

[DCastaneda]

Who said it was a CC/Neu? It's a smooth can Steve Neu 1518 1.5Y (1250kv)

SIDE NOTE: Looks like I decommissioned the MMM on the Muggy from a bad landing at the track

Ok sorry. What is your punch control setting ?
