you're 100% right. my buddy opened it up last night and it was plain as the day is long that's what happend. he took it home to re-solder and wrap again.

so it looks like the battery will be ok afterall.

any ideas on what caused the esc to blow?

i took the motor it was running out and ran it for a pack on my mamba pro, and it ran like a champ so i don't think it was a bad motor.


my buddy swears the mmm shouldn't be run on 6S with zippies. he says it's just a receipe for disaster.

it really seems like my mamba pro handles voltage much better than my mmm's. it feels smoother and stays cooler than my mmm did. i thought they were just for 1/10 cars? my buggy seems to really like the MMP.
