When you phone CC they will take your Credit Card details and send a replacement one then and there and if your broken one doesn't arrive after a certain time, they will charge you, if it arrives than you wont get charged

Got all the gear now to get mine up and running (including the MMM), might get it up and going tomorrow but not sure if I will get time, still abit scared about trying it out, might end up with a broken heart

You probably shouldn't turn it on then. Then you won't have to cry like a little girl if it breaks.

CC was cool about sending out a replacement post haste.... But I have a feeling this wont be the last time it gets replaced. I'd like to see an optional top half of the case that gets rid of the fan and exposes the heatsink to some natural air flow. I'm willing to bet it doesnt need the fan for 95% of applications.

I wonder if they would sell me just a top half of the case that I could modify. As it is, without a fan it seems like it would be hard to get enough air in there to keep it cool.
I wondered about them putting a fan on this too. I'm guessing the failure rate on the fans are going to be high esp. running in dirty environments.

I order MMM from mike and now on the way to my box in aramex (company that give me a mail box in New York)
aramex charged from me $30 just for handle it. Ok lets do math now
MMM+tax+shipng to aramex in NY $174 + (aramex) $30 ship for kuwait = $204

Ok When I receive my MMM and the bec stop working. Lets do math again
MMM $204 + $30 (send it to NY for aramex) + $30 (send it cc) + $30 (from aramex NY to kuwait) = $294 plus wait 2 month lol

That sucks. But...At least castle is reputable enough where they even fix there mistakes. And i heard they are sending a replacement before they even get your broken one. If that is not a good company i have no idea what is. IMO castle will always right any wrong.

Not even close, but it would be nice . I'm still learning just like anybody else. There is always something new coming out and there is always a better solution found for many problems every day in our R/C world. Just don't go by what RURC says .

Can you imagine how hard it was not to laugh when I heard her say that....
Unfortunately, my wife has a pretty good idea what I've spent on RC in the past few years.

I did have to tell her this morning though that I have yet another MMM on the way. Luckily, she was pretty cool with it. Somehow I also managed to not get killed telling her that I have a Slash and E-Revo on pre-order too. My wife must love me or something.

Lol yeah my Fiancee is the same way. She asked the other day how much i have in all my toys, i just laughed. I have more toys than RC so it is really really hard to tell. I love it all though, dont regret buying any of it one bit.

So wait 15 days to order, then 30 more for them to be in stock, then 15 days shipping? Seems like alot of waiting to me.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
