Flux impressions, and Thoughts On Electric MT's in General!

[Muggydude]

quick Q: The fan on my MMM goes on for like 30 seconds intermittently through the run, and then turns off. Just messing around in the street, wheelies and backflips and stuff. Hardly any high speed runs. I touch the motor and ESC and both are only warm, not even hot to touch. I know the fan is supposed to come on at 150 degrees, but it doesn't seem nearly that hot?

Completely normal. Despite what some people think *cough, Brian*, esc fans are very good for us casual brushless users

11. Why does the fan on the Mamba Monster not run all the time or turns on for a split second when I power up the controller, then shuts off?

The fan will run until the speed control is armed. After the speed control arms, it will shut down until speed controller reaches 150°; If your speed control is running under 150° F, the fan will never turn on.
