Maximum minutes on the MMM - 06.16.2008, 04:13 PM

Hey guys we are hearing all the stories about how the MMM's have died. I was wondering how many minutes of run time people have put on their MMM's. I'm assumming some of you guys who's did not break should have racked up some hours now.

Mine went over 90 minutes the first time, less that an hour the second so I'll say:

"140 minutes with 2 failures"

What about you guys?

15 minutes no failure. Will be able to test it out this Wednesday at my local track and hopefully get alot more out of it. Was those 2 140min failures using the internal bec?

I think I got about 3 or 4 minutes on mine after being fixed and dying twice but I really don't see the point in this thread. Castle will get it sorted. This is just scaring people. I just bought a Micro Pro as I have had it with my coging Quark 33a Pro car. The 4 minutes driving with the MMM showed me what smooth really was.

so far,

1) 15 minutes light running a track
2) 1hr+ hard running around track with external bec & fan powered off that mod
3) 10-15 minutes hard running until the buggy got broke. Monster is ok

Regards,
Joe Ling

Tim, the point of the thread is to see how much run time people have on "the Good ones". It will give us a better over all veiw of the situation. People tell me "mine is working fine" the I ask how much it's been run & normally what they tell me is less time than what I got on mine before it failed. I'm not worried about Castle taking care of it, they have been outstanding thru this whole thing. I'm just trying to get a feel for how many people have say a few hours on it verses them telling me it works fine when they have only run it for a few minutes. Should'nt scare anyone? Yes the MMM is supper smooth, I was considering a clutch until I used the MMM, now forget about it.

I have 8 race days on mine. that is 3, 5 min quals and 15min mains with a few 25 min mains (req battery swap) and 3 practice packs per race day. I also have 12 4s 5000 packs and 4 5s 4350 in my yard.
This is in a Losi 8ight with a Neu 1512 2.5d in it.
I don't understand why some work and some don't.
