Just found a funny

They have the shaft size wrong 2.3mm! Wonder how long that has been there!

Just goes to show you how much CC cares about the car market.

Looks like just a typo; 2.3mm instead of 3.2mm. They did say 1/8" as well though...

It's changed.

It's funny how they recommend a MM or a MMM for the motor. It must be VERY hard to run that motor on air. : )

ROFL. Is that false advertisement? It's got to be. They have said nothing about the MMM anymore. They are checking the rcgroups threads, but are avoiding the MMM threads. They took out the page on the Monster Maxx, but left this up for grabs. Man I totally missed that one. Great job of noticing Brian. Way the go CC group, you guys are AWESOME. I hope they shine the light on what is going on with the Monster Maxx. Man I wish my controller was here so I could throw it in their faces. I will do it anyways just for the heck of it. I'm nobody compared to CC, but I might have a monster of a controller ready before they are. I wonder how much money their engineers are making and they can't even get the timing right to work on a 4 pole motor. Mike is the guys from CC watching this posts at all? If so, what happened to the top notch CS that they are supposed to have?

lol, I probably wouldn't have cought it either, but was looking for more spelling errors. Yeah, they took the MMM page out of the products list, but you can still type the address manually to see the same page that's been there since the beginning of time. :rolleyes:

So, it's a timing issue for the Nue/MM problem? I thought it had something to do with slotted motors. I would've thought that the high back EMF from the cored design that was causing the problem...

Brian,

I think CC is making a poor excuse with the timing issue. I'll be running the MM tomorrow with a Aveox 1412/1y and it is working fine. Just now I did a little full throttle just to see if would cog and nothing. My truck went straight on its lid. How come CC had to get so technical with things. All they had to do is have the timing function like all the other controllers out there. I guess they are paying right now for being so darn technical and different. GOOD JOB CASTLE CREATIONS. Man I hope Mike doesn't get angry at me for bashing on the great or should I say once great CASTLE CREATIONS. Let me stop and see if CC will come out with the Monster Maxx. Mike if I do get on your bad side for doing this, I'm sorry man, but CC should come here and give us all a good explanation of what is going on. BTW I'm also on Kontroniks case with the Power Jazz. They should not have put the Jazz on the name, since all my Jazz, Beat and Smile controllers have option for car mode.

Regards.

Patrick stepped in on rcgroup - problems with a twin mamba board design and back to the drawing board :(

At least they are monitoring the sites - Shame though that they didn't even email me to say thanks for pointing out the error! That would have taken 10 secs...

[lutach]

I wonder how GriffinRU's MM is doing with the twin MM power boards? If Griffin made it work, why couldn't CC make it work as well?

Brian, what is the address? Would like a laugh at reading the proposed spec!
