1:30 in the morning and you have the energy to bother to turn on the computer and post. i would have just slept, i'm usually buggered by 2am.

i reckon u should first check if killing the MMM by drawing too many amps is covered by the warrenty. then if it is (and it's written,not just some guy on the phone says so) then try it. if not, well then, your call.

postage is SOOOO to Australia. took almost a month to get a padded envelope to me from chicago.

nah, i just leave my computer on the whole day, so it was on when i got home. Good point about the MMM, i had a look in the manual and it says the warrenty doesnt cover 'overloading' which im pretty sure excessive amp draw comes under.

Oh well, i expressed shipped my MGM to the Czech Replubic, cost $60, but should get there within three days, two days to fix the controller, and another three days back and it should be sweet. Hopefully thats how the timeframe works out anyway!

Now that is wishful thinking. If you are lucky it will get there in like a week, and WHEN they finally do get around to troubleshooting your ESC, and maybe fixing it in a couple of weeks, then they will ship it back to you for another week or two of traveling time. With the Holiday season upon us you may see it sometime in the New Year IF you are lucky. You need to look at it from teh real world perspective and expect the worse, then if it arrives early you can be happy and celebrate. Good luck with that Jordan.

Patrick said the Mamba Monster can handle any motor you throw at it. So if he said that, I guess it'll be under warranty. If it fails, then we will all know the limit and Castle would have to be more specific on what the ESC can handle. I'm sitting here just waiting for someone to try the ESC with one of the large 1527 or low turn 1521.

The only way to find out is to see someone actually try a Mamba Monster with one then.
