This sucks- my hobby shops aren't going to receive these until mid august apparently.

If I bought directly from castle will I receive it faster?

And are these mid august predictions going to be correct??


Just a question for Patrick,
Did you ship to every single hobby shop that has them backordered?
If so what time do you think they will arrive?

I believe he said they made enough to cover all the repairs, and to fill all existing orders- if your hobby shop ordered some a while back, they will get them. When? ASAP...

I ran mine down at The Grove this afternoon and I was impressed.

I ran 2 packs through it without any thermal shut down or any other problems.

Except for a few related to operator error.

The testing will continue.

I ran 3 packs through mine today. I still haven't received the parts to repair my "brushless ready" transmission yet so I'm running it in my converted Ofna Ultra Comp with a 10xl on 5s. It is performing flawlessly.

I ran the V2 again today, this time upped it from 4s to 5s, same 9xl same 24/65. Motor got to 160, but the MMM didnt get over 111º. Fan clicked on once for a few seconds. Too good to be true ! It was a bit cooler today than yesterday but not much. Heres a vid of some wheelies with it in a lot, just for fun if you like.

swear I took this pic right after I was done 22 minutes. Moved the IR all over it and that was the highest it read. Stopped a couple times and it read 104..all onroad though

Jay

you could bring that MMM down to Phoenix and we could run it in the Arizona desert and see how hot it will get...I think that fan will be running like a bat out of hell.....
