The MGMs are not bad, they can be unneccessarily frustrating at times. The programming is too complex, and the USBCOM should work easier. I think the brake reverse prgramming is subpar.

Overall tho they are solid controllers, just dated in the firmware/software by more modern stds. I still have mine after 4 yrs and there still is not a native CC/Tekin/Novak/etc solution to replace it.

As fr as the buggy goes on shutting down. First try to do the "auto tuning" in Parameter A." You set it, drive the car around for a bit and the esc will auto set certain parameters based on performance.

Failing that, check to see if your batts are up to teh task, and you are not hitting the LVC or something. You can always put it in race mode to disable all the limiters to test the car out and narrow down the problems.
