Doesn't sound like you did anything wrong so I'm guessing manufacturer defect. I'd contact Medusa to see if they'll cover it under warranty.

I can't. I'm using mechanical brakes and have to use the aux slot for my brake servo. I think I'm just going to ditch the CCBEC for a receiver pack, and I hate receiver packs! It's either that or...

Technically you aren't supposed to need a bec with the Monster, but since there have been problems with the internal bec failing, this is a preventative mod. CCBEC stands for Castle Creations BEC.

Since you were doing speed runs I'm guessing that you're not geared conservatively, plus the 7700 can pull some serious amps. Your A123 pack can deliver 69 amps continuously, while a Trakpower 4900...

I switched from the RRP 48t spur to the HPI 52t metal spur from the XL and it's been holding up fine. The downside to the HPI spur is that it's thinner and only uses 1 slipper pad.

MM + CCBEC + Feigao on 4s worked fine for me before (and after) the MMM came out. And look, you can still buy it all now! :mdr:
