All, the ones which I have...starting from gen1 up to the latest. I have brains from various generations, so I built a simple fixture and tried them all.
No separate LVC, just bench testing with load and receiver pack.

Thank you Artur, did someone provide a gen3 for you to test?

If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...

Sweet. Assuming it all still works fine once the brain is reconnected to the/a powerboard, you would need to use a seperate LVC to protect your lipos (since the built-in one is turned off)? That was what I was getting at before really. You never cease to amaze me with your electrical wizardry....

Yes, the newest version. Are there more than 3 generations, or less?

I've tested 2 modified controllers with 6S for 30 minutes, running up/down/brakes with no problems. Have not tested unmoded ones.

MM mods - 01.12.2008, 08:22 PM
I just sent one of my MM esc's in for mods. I'm hoping to run 5s in a 1/8 buggy when I get it back. Does that seem realistic? Reliable? I'm running it now on 4s with an un-modded MM and so far no problems. I was running an 18t pinion and it got pretty warm after 8-10 min really heavy bashing, didn't thermal though. I switched to 14t and there's very little heat.

8XL (kv2084) at 5S would be too hot...

Mod2 requires two ESC's and as result doubles number of Fets. More Fet's - more Amps.
