My Brushless Muggy Project : input please :)

[bdebde]

I don't use RCM mount (made my own) but the finned can fits with even the smallest pinions (10t), The rcm mount should do the same.

You will certainly need a 1521, I would steer clear of the 1D though (amp hog), The 1.5D or 1Y (my preference) would be better IMO. I think satttheman was getting about 60mph with the 1Y.

I too would be unsure the MMM would be the controller to use, still running the cr@p out of mine to see if it holds up. I really like my MGM, still trying to see if the MMM is enough to replace it. MGM has some new models coming out with some more features and 250 - 280 amp power handling.

If going for speed, I would certainly go for the evo 30 batts.

Innovative_RC chassis is one stout chassis, I love mine.

Haven't had any need for the rpm arms; still have not broken a stock one yet.

The Muggy has 20mm hexes which are fine, but limit you to losi wheels. I also have the 23mm adapters for 40 series wheels/tires. Not too sure how the 40 series road rages are; I never liked the 2.2 or buggy size as they balooned like crazy. I also use 17mm hexes for HPI phaltline wheels/tires, and they work without any problems/stripping. You may want to go with the phaltlines if just running mainly on road, but do not get the pre-glued ones (HPI does cr@p glue job).

OH, and welcome to the forums!

Great news.... I could make one but the rc-monster looks nice... as long as it is good stock a mount is a mount

Awesome looks like i am on the right trail.... do you know if he was running 5 or 6s ? was there any heat issues? run times?

Yeah, they were not ready yet when I did mine, they are nice mounts.

I believe he was running 6s (I would go 6s minimum), check his thread here

Well the new MGM's have nearly everything the MMM has(and some it doesn't). http://mgm-compro.com for info, should be in the RC-Monster store soon though.
