OMG OMG OMG!!! Awesome. I can't believe it's going to take a few weeks though for it to hit the shelves still

. My savage is so close to being finished. I can't wait.

The case looks really sturdy. Another good thing is that the case protects the caps. My friend discovered the caps on his MM are a little exposed the hard way. Once again castle comes out with the innovation to make this esc the as reliable as possible.

Nice! Where'd you get the pics?

Edit: Nevermind. I figured it out.

So I don't get it; is the OP a beta tester or something? Thanks for the pics regardless of how you obtained them.
---edit--- nm, figured it out

Chunky little monkey it is, but it would look really nice on my Gmaxx.....

It looks awesome! Even has a built in fan!

Now... to decide what to put it in.

Can't wait to hear how it holds up for all the RCM members.

Looks good! Except for the fan. Pull that baby apart, remove the fan, and replace the heatsink with one slightly larger and I'll be happy.

It actually has a pretty big cross cut heat sink already. The fan doesn't do much until you start really slamming it (like full throttle, full brake, full throttle, etc...) because it stays pretty cool most of the time.

Phase-Phase resistance is .000216 ohms. 67 mils of copper thickness on the circuit board. 6.5mm plugs with 10ga wires -- male plugs are included (and in the first run of production, we may be soldering the 10ga wires to the board... I don't know if we will have quantity of the solder-down bullets in time for the first production run.)

WELCOME PATRICK!

Wires or plugs is fine, can't wait to get mine.

Honestly, BrianG, did you have a bad childhood experience (

) involving small computer fans???

BrianG · 03.31.2008, 08:09 PM

lol, no. I just don't like 'em. I'm a BIG "fan" of KISS ("keep it simple stupid", not the band, although they weren't bad either)...

What's_nitro? · 03.31.2008, 08:12 PM

WOW! My parents like KISS too!

I say it depends on how loud the fan is. If I could hear it standing above my truck (body on) then I wouldn't want it.
