The MMP&tekin combo is very smooth, I like my 1400kv/MMP/6s buggy
I think the MMP can handle 1/8 scale just fine, even truggies with a light setup. I am going to try running my soon finished hyper ST with MMP and CC 1518 on 6s just to prove how good the esc is. I do one mod on my MMP's, I run the fan of the reciever so its always on. Makes it hard to get the esc over 100f.
