I've been using a $60 ESC with 6s Lipos no problems at all. Its just that it doesn't have proportional brakes (air/boat esc). If my MMM turns out to be no good I'll go back to that and just wait until something proven comes along, if thats the MMM V3 then great,
but no more preordering for me. And when people say its too cheap at $160, well its not if it doesn't work properly is it? Heck, I was happy running a single velineon in my E-maxx on 3s anyway.
I do feel bad for Castle though, I'm sure it sucks for them and they would want nothing but for everyone to be happy with their MMM's.
Can you tell me what's your $60.00 controller who can supporte 6s??
If he can take over 200amps, i'll buy one for my e-revo

if you want brakes you will need to run mechanical brakes and you will have no reverse with an air ESC, I have one for my latest project...and if you use a pistol Tx you will need a Pistix adapter here are a few links to what I have
