Well -- without opening it, you couldn't tell. We kinda sneaked this upgrade in without any fanfare.

We've been shipping with the new FETs for about two months. But there are still a lot of NTMFS4901 based MMM controllers out there.

How much difference between the old and new FET? Not as much as you might think, because the copper and capacitors in the MMM are the main limiting factors. The power handling difference between the old and new MMM MOSFETs is less than 5%. Add a capacitor pack (like on the Traxxas version) and the power handling goes up by about 15%.
