The motor isn't going to be a Neu, but the motor design is licensed from Neu. The motor is gonna be a doozy, from what I hear.

Final specs as I know:

6S LiPo
200A continuous
Built-in CCBEC
Has a fan
Comes with motor, but will be available as ESC only

has anyone noticed that joe hasn't popped his head in for comment lately? probably doesn't want it chewed off by the angry wolves...

I do not know if anyone has caught this or not, but if you go visit the Mega motors website and look at model # (ACn Car8) which is the square blue finned motor. In the specs section they have suggested setups from testing criteria with 21volts & 22volts for the MMM at 40amps geared with a 14t pinion, at 29,000RPM's.

So they must know something that we do not.

According to Mega, you can run a MM on 6s, but there are no confirmed setups that survived. They have a vid of an XB8 supposedly on 6s, and they told me the 8ight made for robinson racing and profiled by RC Driver was a 6s powered MM. I'm not sure how they did it without modding like those here that tryed it, but if they did it with a stock MM, I htink the mmm might be a real hoss and can be possibly overdriven by at least 2s lipo

Here I am.

And for those that are looking for specs, here ya go. The MMM should be available in March. We're waiting on the things that are out of our hands right now. Boards, cases, boxes, manuals, etc. It'll be able to handle up to 6s lipo and 200A continuous. It'll also have our Castle BEC switching regulator integrated into the controller so you'll be able to dial your output voltage to your servo(s) to anything you want between 4.8v and 9v in 0.1v increments. The motors we've licensed from Steve Neu (arguably the best motors in the world). Total cost of the combo should be around $300. If any of you want to be notified when it's released shoot me an email at support@castlecreations.com and I'll add you to the list. When it's released you'll get an email from yours truly. :)

Right on Joe!!! Dude, welcome back - hey, let me get this started by asking for a quick clarification from you - what are the specs going to be?

jhautz · 01.30.2008, 06:21 PM

Hey Joe. Glad you chimed in. Is this new March date for real?

Look above for ESC specs. Motor specs have not been finalized but rough kv's are 2200, 1750, and 1550. We're not saying exactly which date guys...we can't see the future.

Yeah, I saw that after I put my question up. You must have gone back and edited your post while I was typing. Sneaky.

Anyway, thanks for giving us an idea on the KV's of the motors. This is excellent news. And it's so nice to see you'll be giving us a nice ESC that will handle 6s. I'm not as concerned about high amps as I am high voltage so I'm stoked. Especially since I already bought a 6s battery betting on you guys coming out with the MMM in the spring!

Thanks for the update here Joe - you can get back to your phone calls!
