Just me two cents:

Feigao motors are a graet deal, comparing their performance to what they cost. For the average basher a properly setup MM and feigao will offer exactly what they want. The money saved can be used to buy better batteries (enerland cell based), which I highly suggest.

After some amount of time a feiago user will want to step up to a better motor. I am sure that the mega motor is more effecient and cooler running than a feigao. Plus it is most likely more powerful. I noticed the same thing when going to hacker motors, supposedly feigao are hacker clones. That is like comparing apples to oranges IMO. If you budget will allow for a better motor, buy it. If not go for the feigao motor, they work just fine.

I find the humor of your statement lutach. Saying that the mm gets hot due to the fact it is overrated is incorrect. The mgm has superior programming, in that it does not seem to mind what type of motor it runs. Same with the quark, save for a poor heatsink design. The mm is an excellent 2 pole motor contoller, and an amazing value. No doubt that the higher priced and rated escs will work better, however there is no need to buy a 300 esc to run a 2 pole motor on 4s, the mm works just fine for that. I have run mine on a 4 pole plett and had good results, but it is in a smaller/lighter vehicle.
