Making an esc better?

Hey guys,

This is just for the purpose of chatter and perhaps my gaining some insight. I've been cruising this forum for a few months now and it is apparent that there are some electronics savvy guys/gals here.

I've often come across comments like the Mamba Max would be better if....

Well, I'm sure that the guys at Castle had a product in mind when they conceived the MM controller that would fulfill a particular need. The number of MMs that I've smoked in the last couple of months has told me that my needs exceed the capabilities of the current MM. Of course, the MMM is coming out sometime in the next decade, but I don't want to have to wait.

What I would like to know is whether there is a way to "upgrade" a MM to enable it to run 5S lipo reliably and up the current handling capacity of the MM esc. I like the MM's programmability and its form factor, so I thought I'd ask. If it is at all do-able, I might be inclined to try. I have a couple of guinea pigs sitting on my bench.
