I'm looking for the 2025 motor and this ESC for my Baja 5B conversion. I do have a setup including ESC, motor, pistix, LVC and all that I can use but the before mentioned kit is definitely what I want to try out when it's out.

That being said I'd rather have a quality built and tested product out so we don't get the same story as with the first versions of MMM.

I thought that the MMM problems were due to a faulty component from an outside manufacturer, not due to lack of build quality or a lack of testing.

Can someone from Castle toss us a bone maybe?

I wonder how well the Phoenix Ice 100 would work for a Monster Truck?

I understand it's not going to have brakes like the MM software.

Will a Pistix adapter be required?

What kind of power will we be able to throw at it Castle? My dream scenario is a 200A/12S but i know that is asking a lot.

160A / 12S is what we are going for.

That should cover it and it's somewhat close to my dream scenario. Thanks for the update!

12s at 3.7 volts per cell and 160 amps = 9.5HP - About twice the power of your average go cart or minibike. That ought to be sufficient for most any RC car. :)

9,5HP x ~85% (system efficiency) for the output continuous power
4 x continuous power under acceleration ~35HP, might be enough for a RC car :D

Brushless, what else ?

Some people (me) will have to learn how to tape their tires
100mph geared monstertrucks will probably blow many wheels

Nuz! Taped tires just wont do it...
These tire manufacturers need to get up to times and build some form of tire that is belting integrated into the tire.

Arent baja tires the best for not ballooning as they are thick?
