I just bought 2 MM after ordering MMM but I dont see it as a marketing trick...i see my MM as a failsafe to reduce downtime and to force myself to buy a truck to put those MM when MMM arrives

Thats a little pessimistic I was thinking more along the limes of maybe the verification went ok so they've started production and could give the retailers an ETA?

Well we have to be realistic...but maybe a bit pesimistic...I should have said

Means we have to play more with our MM and our truck a little longer

It seems that CC sure has sold alot of MMs for replacements for the MMM.I had 2 MM prior to my 2 MMM then sold both on ebay.When my MMM malfunctioned I bought 2 MM again.Thats 4 MMs in the last 5 months. I will end up keeping the MMs when I get my 2 MMMs back.I have had the chance though to perfect my soldering skills.HA HA?So whats the real timeframe on the MMMs return?

No word yet from CC and those MM (ESC only not combo) are also out of stock on most sellers (only see them available on ebay nowadays). One vendor said to me that CC is 3weeks late from delivering the MM. It seem my 2nd MM will arrive just a few weeks before my MMM. My 2 trucks are sharing same ESC :(

I hope it is soon. My third Monster Max acted up yesterday. I pulled over a for a second and all power just shut off. Dead as a door nail. After about a minute or so, it came back on and been driving ok. My regular Mamba is already at Castle for repairs and I have two Monsters there too... No way I am buying another.

OK -- first testing build is done, all went well. We did have to change a few values to get everything to work perfectly -- but all is good.

Builds start today.

Sweet. Great news.


I just sent my first MMM in to you guys today. It died a quiet death last weekend. Ran fine thru the qualifiers with no issues, but when the main came it just wouldnt turn on. I got it to boot up with a Rx pack plugged into the reciever, but that only lasted for 10 seconds before it quit again.

EDIT: This was after a good 20 hours of run time. It saw alot of action before it kicked.


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


Silent...But Deadly
