MGM 160/18

Mike has them here:

It will be much easier to program it if you use the 2 cables for your computer.

I am using only the coil over PowerStrokes. I was thinking of using the same idea but just for 1 shock. I have 3.3 shafts, so if I don't have enough clearence to do this I may upgrade to CVDs.

Could you tell me if this controller worth every pennies, because for +/- $350.00CAD, it's alot more than a MM, and i've read on a tread here on this forum, somes guys how'd experiment somes problems with MGM controller.

I'am to build an e-revo, and for now, i've a MM controller and i think for a Feigao 8XL motor, but i've think to wait for the end of the winter and save money for a high-end controller (MGM or Schulze, something like that) and a Neu or Lehner motor.

But i don't know if the big $$$ difference between MM/Feigao setup and MGM/Neu setup worth the money.........

And more, i want to take a set of hybrid 1/8 scale diff for my revo$$$$

Or i'll simply leave it nitro with a big LRP Z28 Spec 3 truggy engine.

nice build mark! be sure to let us know how the new controller does for you. i may have to yank my MM and invest in the MGM.

It is hard to say since I have never run a Feigao/MM. However alot of guys do and from reading the posts that system works well. I can tell you from experience that the MM/Neu is a pain in the rear. I used a MM 7700kv in a stadium truck and got hooked on the incredible speed, but had heat problems. So when I got an E-Maxx I wanted a truck that I could bash the hell out of without having to worry about not enough power to clear the jump I wanted to make or worry about it thermalling. I guess it depends on what you want. I tried to get minimal down time, so I spent the money. (Actually wife did for a gift. This is my midlife crisis. Better $1000 than a 20 year old blonde)

If i spend $1000+ on a brushless system and my wife know that, she'll cut my head with a steak knife, put it in the oven at 350 for about 3 hours and her and my 3 kids heat them for lunch

Some women just dont understand RC...
As for the shock screw thing, I thought you ment it ripped out at the top, not on the lower a-arm. In that case maybe just a slightly longer screw with a nyloc on the other side, rather than one giant screw that goes all the way through both lower shock mounts.

I only have one kid so they could eat for a while. The $1000+ was the whole truck. The Neu and MGM cost about $550.

Here is my first attempt at a video. Of course all the best action was when I wasn't rolling. It is alot easier to take still photos then a movie with one hand. the next one will be better.

Wowwwwwwww I want this setup in my revo
Can't wait to see another video but in the sand this time

Way cool! Looks like it wheelies on demand at any speed! Gonna have to learn some finger control, lol!!

[mkrusedc]

Wheelies on demand and tires balloning 15 minutes into the bash. It was incredible. Next some jumps.........

[suicideneil]

I could see the tires ballooning, that is some freaky powerful set up there.

Neil,
I still can't wipe the silly grin off my face.
