Which controller?

That's a slight exaggeration. Most of the failures didn't even smoke, they stopped working and CC has isolated the issue and is testing the new component right now. Go to the CC forum on here and you will see more and this is coming straight from Patrick.

My MMM was a great controller until the National Semi component failed and once that is resolved I am positive it will be flawless.

What about the R1Pro? I know some have used it on 5s in a truggy. I don't have any experience with it yet, but I would think it would handle a Maxx nicely. The videos for the forthcoming R8 in a Maxx were just a R1Pro.

Smooth throttle control, U.S. support, and available now. Plus it's alot smaller than the MMM. May need to add a fan, though.

jhautz is actually using a r1pro in one of his 1/8 buggies and really likes it. I am pretty sure he is running 5s as well. Hopefully he will comment on what else he did to it. I think he added an external BEC, sometimes runs a fan, but I am not sure if he added any caps... please correct me if I am wrong.
