Hey guys I have not been following the thread, but heres an awesome update.

I was talking to CC today about my 1/18 BL because it was having problems, so I decided to ask about the MMM.

He explained how they are in the testing process and trying to find nice motors (2 pole) that are within budget. They were working out a deal with Neu, but the final price ended up being too high, and Mike the head of Neu was not looking to expand his company much larger.

They thought about feigao, but wanted a more quality motor. Apparently they found some great motors from a company that sells them at a good price, and are currently in testing. These motors are 2 pole sensorless, and they are aiming for the price range comparable to the HV-Maxx.

He explained how way back in the day when castle wanted to start making BL setups for cars, everyone said...Theres no way it would move, brushless isnt possible. Eventually after testing there were so many esc's and motors fried, to fill up a 50 gallon barrel! Now, obviously it has exploded in popularity. In the last year, the amount of sales has DOUBLED, puting CC at the top of the line for aircraft and car controllers.

All in all, it gives a good insight as to what the design and price is going to be. I hope that helped...I also got some nice specs on the MM i will post.
