It's happening as we speak. It's not an urban legend, myth, old wife tale, or word on the street kinda thing.

Man, that's bloody wrong. I thought you would be testing one too since you tested the 2200 and 2650 motors. Also after all the nice shirts you sent to Castle and all the nice stuff you said about the Castle products, they should've at least sent you one. I would've.

I just wanted to be clear for Castle I was never an offiicial "tester" of the motors. I recieved them in exchange for the 20+ T shirts I designed and sent over the Castle - I did provide some feedback on the them mainly temps and the play in the rotor.

I've got probably got the only 2650kv HPI version around as I never got sent the production version...

PS Let me know when you get that crawler setup - There is a big NJ scene you should come along...

Well, if I was in charge of the MM Pro beta test, you would have one.

The MM Pro is (in essence) 2/3 of a MMM... they share almost the same design -- except for:

The MM Pro has sensor input (and some cool stuff, like CHEAT* mode)
The MM Pro has adjustable BEC output voltage (.1V increment adjust from 5.0V - 7.0V)
The MM Pro has a much smaller footprint
The MM Pro has a smaller fan (25mm) that can be removed (For BrianG)


*Castle High Energy Advanced Timing -- gives a power boost for stock type sensored motors, with adjustable lead-in RPM

Are you going to replace the original MM with the Pro? or they'll exist in parallel ?

Sounds more like a Sidewinder Pro - i,e, sensored and and switching bec with funky s/w...

MM has been a good seller, it made CC in the car market but in reality is pretty squeezed between Sidewinder, MM Pro and MMM...

Given CC can knock them out easy enough they may continue them but there is a small, market now in reality - 1/10th can use a Sidewinder/MM Pro and 1/8th uses a MMM...

Sidewinder 70
MM Pro 105 (guess at street price)
MM 115
MMM 140

What senario would you buy a MM?
