Patrick, I will try to be constructive, all this brains-transfer business start when you had first generation of MM, with great software but "Ok" layout. Latest version with new layout and new fets doesn't need anything besides couple components, improved heatsinking and software to perform on MMM level. And I mentioned alot that with that layout you did the best for 4-6S setups. And just software upgrade to support 5-6S will do the job. While MMM with just extra 6 fets and all on top, with pathetic cooling just make me believe that all the input from RC forums for small foot print and no fans was ignored. Thank you for switching BEC, though, I understand sometimes you need to iron out some bugs.

I would rather use your product, other than making it to work close to MGM level. You have the best price, software and service but MGM has nice hardware...

And I am not biased on Castle products, I do like what works the best and easy to use.

So, for now I do not see any challenge to make ESC in MM or Tekin R1Pro size with 6S support (30V Fet's protected and adequately heatsinked) and ~100A current capacity.
While 3x6 sounds interesting but at 20S and 250A I will go with different controller...
