Well, you gotta use some common sense. It would be like putting the MMM as the powerplant in a Prius and complaining the motor and/or ESC blew. You have to use it in the right application. Using it with a tiny ~50mm motor in a heavy 8th scale application geared for any decent speed is asking for trouble.

And it would be hard to simply put a list of "acceptable motors" because even those can be the wrong motor depending on the application. Even the bundled CC/Neu motors could be too much for the ESC if used incorrectly. Just too many factors to make a hard rule.

It simply sounds like they are diplomatically saying "Don't expect us to be accountable for your idiocy".
