The MMP is a sidewinder with a heatsink, which is good, but it might run a little hot with a Neu. The 1/10th sidewinder isn't that much more expensice ($10 iirc) and it runs ice cold. If you can fit it under the body, I HIGHLY recommend it.

Not only does the 1/10th sidewinder run cool in minis, but you can use it in a 2wd 10th scale if you ever get the itch too!
I keept getting my Mamba 25 really hot and it finally fried, I now have a MMP and it runs pretty cool compared to the 25. The MMP is an improvement over the 1/18th scale Sidewinder
