I hear you -- the MM Pro is really only for 1/10th scale -- not really 1/8th capable.
I've had a lot of requests for a smaller footprint version of the MMM. The problem is cost -- it gets really expensive to do higher current handling in a very small footprint (current per MOSFET goes way down when doing high density designs.) And remember, most of our products are designed to hit high numbers to offset the cost of R&D. BUT, there is room in our line for a high density, small footprint controller -- just don't expect it to be inexpensive...
That said -- we've been running the MMM in 1/8th buggies for about a year, and haven't had a problem fitting it in a buggy yet...
A high density is what I was mentioning before with the higher number of smaller sized MOSFET.

Yeah, but as I said earlier we are already using the highest density MOSFET available on the market today -- smaller doesn't mean better footprint to silicon ratio. It's all about how much silicon you can get per mm^2 of circuit board.

That's why I mentione the smaller FETs. You can basically fit 2 times more in the same space.
