Bad news for future MM users.

Castle, Tekin and Novak must be staffed with a bunch of short-sighted bafoons. There is a growing market that is not being addressed. The big truck/conversion group is probably one of the few segments in the industry that is seeing gains.
Novak could easily manufacture their HV-Maxx with a 5mm shaft...today. What's so hard about that?
Castle and Tekin, with their information "leaks" are acting like slimy politicians. They let out info to see how people will react and hold interest so we don't forget about them.

My take on all this is that the brains at these companies are not a savvy as one would assume. There are some smart folks here at the forums and elsewhere that have taken things into their own hands and improved on the manufactured product. Why not hire some of them, Tekin and CC? How about some REAL hobbyists on staff. People who actually participate in the hobby and have a passion for it?
Let's face it. MONSTER Mamba Max is just a name of a project. Same with Tekin's "whatevertheycallit." If they had a controller, they would sell it. There's a huge potential for profit. A companies success is based on profit. So why don't they jump on it? Because they don't know how. They need better people.
