Mamba Monster Vs. Novak Hv Pro

Mgm blows em both away.

i called a few hobbyshops today and they raved about the hv pro because of the smoothness in lowend for racing.

personally i like to go fast around a track, not crawling speed! from the videos ive seen of the monster max (version 1 no less) was superb. u could almost crawl a revo with it haha. as long as the batteries can supply the current i dont see how much worse sensorless can be.

The novak setup is fine in an 1/8 BUGGY. Enough power on 4s lipo, and it is smooth, due to being sensored.

Not enough power to get a TRUGGY going without overheating though, and that was the point of this thread...

which fiegao xl motor would you reccomend?sorry i am new to this and ask alot of questions before spending money i live in northern california and we dont have alot of resources for this.

Go with the 9xl for truggy. I tried 8xl before but the 9xl just runs much cooler and has more torque.

Disagreed. I never liked MGM programming, and still don't. But this isn't the place for that discussion.

Till it catches on fire and has to be shipped off to the Czech Republic.

They may be ok in a monster truck for bashing but they haven't proven themselves very reliable for 1/8th scale off-road buggy racing. Neither has the Novak to tell the truth.

Wait! neither has the MMM so far!

At least they are in Kansas.

I own(ed) both and you are way off on that.

They both have strengths and weaknesses, neither is vastly superior to the other. I do prefer my MMM over the MGM though, as it is easier to program and far smoother. The MGM also still has issues running anything over 4 poles.

The HV pro is yesterday's news in my opinion. They finally add a lipo cut off, two years too late and they have yet to add detailed programming capability and are limited on motor choices and finally don't support over 4s.

The MMM is vastly superior in all ways to the HV pro.
