That's just it; the MMM can handle a solid, sustained 120A for any given length of time from what I gather. Patrick himself has mentioned their 120A bench-test they've done on MMMs; the whole shebang handles it.
Agreed on the KO ESC's ratings...they made me laugh when I read them. Obviously they're just FET-specs, but it's just ridiculous.

Try this test and gives us feedback: Get a airplane motor mount, hook a nice big motor along with a nice big prop, try to achieve 120A and keep it at 120A and see what happens. Just keep in mind some of the burst our vehicle see might be upwards in the 200A for a short burst on hard start ups. After the vehicle starts rolling that number takes a nice dive like the "Stock" market lol.
