It would be great if anyone could do some outrunner testing with the MMM, lets hope that it has the same software as the sidewinder.

I am working on this. I had bad luck with some bad A123 cells and using the Turnigy 100 A Plush ESC with a Turnigy outrunner (50-55, 600 kv).

But I just got a new Dewalt pack and the MMM is coming tomorrow. I saw your Youtube vid, so I'm looking forward to seeing what this can do on 6S.

EDIT: it's a Lightning buggy

That is just plain old direct drive. It's called that because there's no transmission between the motor and output gear.

Then there's "direct-drive-to-diff", the term sikeston came up with. We know what this is.

With all the "direct drive to diff" conversions out there, it is much easier to say direct drive or DD instead of direct drive to diff. Maybe we should add DD to the "useful acronyms of memory" list.

As far as I know there aren't any companies/individuals who sell shafts for outrunners that allow dogbones/CVDs to be attached to them. I made a shaft for my outrunner by putting two flat spots on each end of the shaft (for T-Maxx output yokes), and drilling a hole through both ends for the screw pin. For regular dogbone cups you would just need to use a Dremel to make a flat spot for the set screw to attach to.
