But do be sure that we are constantly upgrading the line... We are on V5 of the monster now, and just started shipping Monsters with a new MOSFET that runs cooler than the original.
How can someone tell what version they have? I just recieved a non warranty replacement less than a month ago....would it be the version 5? I know it had a little blue tag on one of the battery wires that said "new stock"

Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.

Yes, that would be a V5 then. ;)

Cool! I'll get 3 V5 soon!

I'll be really happy with a variable voltage BEC, a sensor port and a easy to clean/exchage fan.

Taking the controller apart to clean the fan is just too annoying

The first in Moscow mamba monster with Power mosfets from infenion 011N03
so to speak, caught the eye of http://berserk80.users.photofile.ru/.../125406548.jpg
Characteristics of transistors are impressive, whether in later replaced by the driver after the MXL ....

Yes, very nice transistor -- we are the only company in RC using them right now (too expensive for many companies...)

The new driver will be in the next build of Mamba Monster.

Constant improvement happens @ Castle.

what you just said, along with good pricing and great products and service is what has made castle the industry leader and the brand that i stay loyal to when it comes to motors and especially escs.

keep it up and when castle grows enough to go public wall street, i will be buying some of the IPO

They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.

Well, considering there are literally 10s of thousands of MMMs out there running 6S reliably, what are you really asking??

My Flux has had 4 packs through it so far only but everything seems to be fine. I have only ever run it on 6S from day one. I know it is early days but is seems to be holding up just fine.

In my RC8Te I am running the MMM with the Castle 1518 and again only on 6S. No issues what so ever. It doesn't even get warm enough for the fan to come on most of the time.

On my Serpent 960 I have ran the MMM with Castle 1512 (2650kv) motor on 6S and only 6S. Again holding up just fine.

Two of my MMM's that died seem to have been a BEC related issues but now I run external one on all of them.

Mine regularly got my Revo up to 75 mph (this was GPS clocked) and my LST2 over 60 mph on 6s with zero issues. This was a V2 model as well. This unit ran great for me for 3 years before I sold it. Always on 6s.

Not to mention the countless people I know running them on 6s.

Since this thread is kind of a wishlist, I'd say 60v, 100+A, sensored, and multiple input types (PWM, 5k pot, etc). I'd only want datalogging if there was the ability to add a real-time display...

How about a bluetooth added to it so you could change settings wirelessly?
