The MMM has never thermalled on me and have have pushes it much harder. Keep in mind I had the latest updates from MGM as well and could update via the web. The MGM start up routines were lacking as well, basically the firmware is nowwhere near what the MMM has in it.

I am not saying MGM is junk, but pound for pound and dollar for dollar, the MMM beats it in everyway comparing the same level controllers, and the MMM is still 100 cheaper.
The 16024 was their last generation esc, the 28025 is new generation, which may also make a difference (plus higher current handling). I run a 16024 in my Muggy, and have also tried a MMM in it as well, and I will say that the MMM is a step above that particular MGM model.
