I got the older one with 3 screws. What happend with I just plug it in? does it just smoke (dont want that) or have some kind of overvoltage protection that won't let you use it? The motors I have are Feigao 8XL, Neu 1515 1Y and 1.5D, and if 5s is possible on my MM, which motors would be best to use with what gearing as far as overheating to esc/lipo/motor is concern? This is for the Traxxas E-Revo by the way.
I would say those Neus are def out w/ 5S on a MM (way too many amps), and the 8XL can be done if you are careful. Really for what you've got I would just get a MMM. The 1515 2.5D is the largest I'd safely go on a MM on 5S
