Just some quick information on the MM esc - 06.15.2007, 06:37 PM

Hey guys, I was asking CC about using the MM esc with over 12 cells, heres what he said...

He said, 12 cells and 3s is the max because of the amperage that you are wanting to draw. Since the more amperage, gets more heat there is danger. It is 100A and the other limit. It does have a thermal shutdown, but sometimes it is too late. He said that the actual voltage limit (100 amps for other limit) was 22 volts on the FET's. Obviously, you cant hook up a 7XL with a 22 volt setup, because that would cause way to many RPMS, which in turn would heat up VERY fast, and could easily fry the whole system.

All in all, anything over 3s and 12 cells voids the warranty but it doesnt mean that it cant handle it. He said the ESC itself is very strong, but when the motor isnt happy, it can ruin the whole system.
