Hello? Joe? Dude, please don't tell me you left already. C'mon - give us the low down on the KV of the motor(s) that will come out.

This sounds incredible, and it's good to have you back here on the forums Joe. :-)

So the MMM is officially going to be 200A continuous? I was sure that it was posted before that it would be 175A cont., and 200A burst...but hey, the bigger the better!

Is there a possibilty that we can exceed 6s to 7-8s without making the controller go smoky?

I some how don't think you will get a yes answer to that. It will be a smoke it at your own risk like everything else.

well the MM was only rated to 3s and people put 4-5 and even 6s through it. So basically, going by that it means that the MMM, rated to 6s, shoud take 8, 10 or even 12s doubt it, thought I'd expect you could put a couple extra cells worth of V through it...

I'm sure you will be able to go higher V but the head room will get smaller and the margin for error less and the chances of letting out the smoke far greater. CC won't endorse Higher V.

I think the headroom will be lower and i think if it can be overdriven, it will just be about 2s over the rated 6s max. Honestly, if i get one, 6s would be about my max.


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

LOL I am still laughing about the homeless guy getting tagged with the can of pop... ya sick puppy but I can actually se you laughing while apologising... I used to do mobile security and one detail was vagrant removal. after a few years of dealing with the same people night after night, you grow a little desensitized hehe.... I remember doing the bank of montreal. my last stop and a guy sleeping inside by the bank machine. 3rd day in a row same guy. he'd keep people from using it because he;d hit everyone up for cash. I was running late and really didn't want overtime.... so I just rolled the carpet around him, dragged it out and unrolled him on the sidewalk.... done, time to go home. I know he'll end up back in there anyway, so why waste 30 mins of talking.... they just use bus transfers to open the doors... oops did I let that out?

Finally the news we've all been waiting for. 6s at 200amps continues sounds perfect to me. Now to build a truck to use all that voltage...
