You have been given many examples of similar setups that run the way you want yours to, I think maybe the key is driving style as you seem to run yours somewhat different than most of us. I'm also suspicious of when you stated it really is dependant on ambient temps. Unless you are running in 100+ degree temps (and on hot pavement) for an extended period, it shouldn't put your system into an overheated state. I havent re-read the thread to check this, but how well is your body vented? Maybe its something as simple as that? Try doing a few runs with the body off and measure the temps.
Like I said in my pm to you, my Flux runs very well on 6S, and its about as close as you can get to weight and motor set up to your muggy, and its geared for about the same speed. |
You're right; sort of. It's not that I'm looking to buy the RX8; I'm looking for someone to tell me I shouldn't, and for what reason. I'm DONE with the MMM! I suppose I lack the patience of others? And don't worry, if I'm posting about the same crap in 2 months from now with the RX8, NASA's telescopes are gonna see my Muggy flying into outer space after I punt the damn thing!
My body is not vented well; I can't keep a working MMM long enough to start playing with that stuff. It does need to be vented. Temps aren't too different with body on and body off. Also, I can't comment on how much ambients have truly affected my temps, as I rarely have a working MMM. In 12 months of initial ownership, I only have maybe 10 packs through all 5 or 6 controllers.
