What happened to the Pletty? I would love to know how the MMM runs it.

What's that body?

Well, I had given up on the pletty because the mgm had issues with it. But I plan on trying the MMM with the pletty when my MMM gets back from repair.

It is a Jconcepts revo tango body

Looks good! Hows the MMM?

thanks bdebde!

I'll be watching.

Dead after 5 min of run time. But it is much better than the MGM, no reverse/brake suprises or other issues. Hope it is solid after it gets repaired/replaced.

The purple zip tie was temporary, ended up very temporary (5 min) when the MMM died.

A few more topless pics. The BEC is still there (not hooked up) with wires tucked away, so it will be neater when the MMM gets back.

Sweet. Shame about the MMM, but it should be fun with the Pletty when its repaired...

Mine ran silky smooth with an Align 600XL, so I know it handles 6 poles fine. I am sure it will work perfectly with the pletty.

You say the MMM is smoother then the MGM. Is your MGM the latest software update?
or are you running an older software?

I'm curious cause I have an MGM running off old software, and dont want to send it into the Czech Republic and wait months for it to come back. I was going to get the MMM while I send it the Czech.

My MGM was version 3.04 software (older version). I sent it in to MGM when I ordered the MMM. The MGM seems to start pretty hard as well (bit of a jump at take off), even with minimum throttle input; the MMM seems to start out at 0rpm and accelerate very smooth all the way up to max rpm

Which one you prefer, MGM or MMM ? Is MMM smoother than MGM, what you think ?

Your car looks nasty and very clean :lol:

And where did you get those Neu Energy 6S batteries ? I didn't find them anywhere.

MMM is much smoother than the MGM with better low speed control. The MGM is a robust controller but the MMM has much better firmware and the programming software/computer interface is much better too. I have used both in my maxx and am very glad the MMM will be back to me this week.

Thanks mate ! That is very good thing to know when choosing controller.

I need a Muggy now for the 1521 I just bought...

Well, at the moment, I prefer the MGM because it is working. But, seriously, the MGM with latest firmware (3.23) is very nearly as smooth as the MMM, and has much improved low speed control.

The Neu batteries were ordered directly from Neu.

Kinda like putting the cart before the horse there :lol: You could just send it to me :lol:

Ok.Thanks.

how big/heavy is that battery, and what one is it?

That aint a battery- its a container/project casing with a battery inside...

What's bigger a muggy or an Lst?

I believe they are the same size. The muggy uses that flat-pan chassis, where as the lst uses that horrid looking double-deck design. Size is the same though I think- you could always look up the dimensions on the LOSI website to be certain.

Wheelbase is the same on both, but the LST weighs a bit more.

The Muggy looks better too, just a meaner look to the truck in my opinion.

I agree it looks killer kinda like a truggy on steroids! I wonder what an xtm mammoth would be like converted?

how powerful/fast was it with the Neu? could you wheelie on demand?
thanks

It will wheelie sometimes, if it gets enough traction. I am not into wheelies, I only run 30k fluid in the center diff, a little heavier fluid and it will wheelie all the time. Speed is 40 to 45 mph, check the vids earlier in this thread.

I have become interested in doing a muggy now, but i have a few questions. I heard it needs a stiffer chassis, what kind of chassis is it and where can i buy one from? And did the lst2 size bodies just fit right on?

Some of the guys have got by with the stock chassis, but it may bend in a hard bashing session. Run it until it gets bent, or get a roller with the losi upgrade chassis already (like I did). The losi hard anodized upgrade chassis would be a good choice and I use an innovative rc chassis (thicker but more expensive).I used an LST2 body, (the cadillac) but the mounting holes are different than the LST2. The current body is a revo body (j-concepts tango).

I have a question... Do you know if the RCM muggy mount will fit a 1521? I thought the 1515 and 1521 would take the same motor screws, but they didn't and last night I was going to mount my 1521 in my 8ight ( for the ease of it) but the screws were to big and would fit through the motor mount.. I plan on getting a muggy soon and put the 1521 in it... so I was wondering if you knew... Since you already have the Cadillac of bashers that I am jealous of!

I had to open the mount in my BPP truggy. My truggy doesn't use the RCM mount. I think you might have to get the Dremel out for a workout :lol:. You can also talk to Mike to see if he can modify the mount for you.

But if i get a new 3.3/lst size body that has not had holes put in it yet, would it fit properly everywhere else.

yep, just mark the holes where ya want them. I did have to do a little extra trimming in front of the front wheel wells on both bodies, the big shocks would catch the body on full compression, I would guess that the LST2 would require the same, not a big deal there.

i want to get the Neu 1521/1.5D motor with the RCM muggy mount too, so if you do email mike please tell me his reply!

many thanks

I'm guessing it comes with 17mm hexes?

20mm hexes, 17mm are an option part.

very nice
I'd stretch it

Does anyone know if the eight spur plastic cover will work with the muggy setup?

Gear covers are for wimps.

More than likely though if they use the same/ very similar lookinf center diff units- a dremel cures all ills though... :smile:

Not sure, I know the diff itself is the same, but the supports are different.

I agree!
