review of my third v2 ....wow...still running....the esc close to 3 hour(1 with a bec)i remove it and the it seems run cooler....strange...?!!(5f less)and i notice that....each time that the fan come to live i check the temp...112f at the air flow and 109f at the capacitor(i know they are under the case but just to give me a idea)....for those temps everything is ok!!!...i reach those temps on 25min of run time at 18 celcius outside .... however for my 2 failed unit when i checked the temp it was higher ....122f at the air flow and 130f to the capacitor.....and they failed :party:same outside temp and same set-up(1515 1.5d 6 cell lipo)

dont know why my 2 failed was hotter.....but i keep my finger cross for my third unit

Hey Mike, you know why your V2 still alive??????? Because it's me who break-in it, and i know the secret for a long lasting MMM.....................You only have to invert the input batterie wire and plug it on 22.2 volts:lol:

You'll have a beautiful firework, but after that, your MMM will last a longtime:whistle:

Hey Mike, keep it in shape, because i'll re-buy it when i'll have to replace my MM:intello:

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

im sure....that is the way to keep the mmm alive:whip:

Would it definitely kill it you think? I've plugged my battery after soldering deans on backwards many-a-time with my sidewinders and mamba max and it didnt seem to hurt them...

Arct1k 09.27.2008 08:52 PM

I put 10s into a MM and CC bec in error without harm... Good job they design them for muppets!

david lamontagn 09.27.2008 09:09 PM

killermmn 10.02.2008 08:53 PM

a other one dead but whit a bec on it!!!:oh:

I have 2 working V1's on 6S with internal BEC, but popped my first V2 on 6S 10 seconds after first initialization.

I refuse to use an external BEC with the MMM!!!! Really - what's the point? :neutral:

If I want to use and external BEC, and a fan mod, and a cap mod - well..... :whistle: - I'll do what I did after my V2 popped...... Go back to my modded MM with fan and CCBEC.

If I buy a 6S ESC with an internal BEC I am going to use it just that way. I appreciate the time (and money) that CC has had to eat with the problem they are having and I know that eventually the product will be rock solid just the the MM is now.

Once the V3 comes out and has been proved to be a solid controller I am going to send in my popped V2 for replacement and then when I get that back I will send in my V1 controllers 1 at a time as well for an upgrade.

In the meantime I have picked up a MGM E-series 8025 6S sBEC controller that just came in the mail today - I hope to get it soldered and programmed to run this weekend. We'll see how this one goes.

Just as a follow-up to my previous post to maybe help all the MMM owners out there feel a little better.

I soldered the connectors and hooked up the MGM esc and powered it on. It did the initial programming okay and just like my MMM V2 on 6S I ran the wheels just a little bit and then two huge sparks came out of the ESC and then nothing.

Very disappointing as this ESC cost almost twice that of the MMM.

I'll be contacting MGM support over the weekend, but it'll probably take at least a month with sending it back and getting a replacement.
