The only thing I can come up with is the batteries might not be up to the task of 55mph. Its already been said, but 55mph and such a heavy truck is pulling serious power. Maybe the ripple current is getting you where the batts arent up to the task and smoking controllers. I personally run the 2200 on 5S and it stays nice and cool in my emaxx. I think the 2200 on 6S is a bit much, but I think Castle says its a solid setup.
I have been running the MMM on 4S and 5S and have had good luck with the V3s. I have run them enough times now to know the MMM is a solid speed control. The V2 did have the BEC problem which has been well documented and it happened to me so I am a believer, but the controller hasnt failed on yet.
