I run 5s on my MM in my girls maxx, her truck is about 11lbs. I too cannot run a fully charged 5s on hers, it'll go for a second then stop. So at that point I have to turn the MM off, then on. I pick it up and run it in the air for a few seconds, then she is good to go. But I need to drain the batt a little first. Other than that, I run 5s on a 10xl in her truck and it seems to do well. I run two 30mm fans on her esc though too. It's geared 14/51 mod 1 with stock diffs right now. But 5s so far has not been an issue on the MM esc.

my MM does the same thing with a fully charged 5s pack. I am running it in a losi 8 with a 9xl motor. I cant complain though since it is way out of spec. Other then that it does very well. Runs hot but what can I expect from a controller made for 10th scale and 3s. Now they just have to get us the MMM or tekin r1mt.

I agree, or a nice updated Quark would be good too!
