I wouldn’t necessarily agree with you..

I personally have $140+ bet / ridding on the fact that they won’t deliver as pensively discussed with a CC guy IE (Pdelcast) who wanted to bet me $500.00 dollars they would deliver. Either way I win, I either get the product I paid for months ago or have / get a full refund and an new ESC when they finally come out.

It’s a win win for me..


Nothing!.. Hahahahaaa..

My God, I'm finally allowed to post here.

I wanted to say that waiting for the MMM sucks big time.
I've been checking every vendor/forum day and night for weeks.

I noticed last friday that Tower was the first to revise their due date
to August and was waiting to read here what the CC man would say this time
(that bet must be embarrasing - but I'm sure he could just send him one of the test ones now if he really felt like it)

I got so fed up I cancelled my pre-order and ordered a china HV ESC for 6S in my E-MAXX but then realised the whole plane ESC brake issue .
Now I've rejoined the queue for MMM and wasted $100.

In the mean time I'm using a little Sidewinder on 3S (within spec its just slow) and playing around with cooling for the KB45-12L motor.

One last thing, why-o-why are they going to plugs on the ESC??
I'm still waiting for my VXL-3scrappestescyetmade to come back from repair for broken plugs on the board among other things.

I am really hoping we get them back soon. I have two getting repaired and a regular MM in repair, so I have no back ups now. My third v1 MMM is going strong. I am not even using a fan on it anymore since they kept breaking. Been racing and driving the snot out of it with no problems for almost two months now. Knock on wood.

I held back on purchasing one of these for my revo conversion until the unit was proven by consumers. I'll do so again with this "V2" iteration and just focus on other projects. In the meantime, I've already purchased 3 6s 5000mah packs. I think I'll wait and see how the combo fares as well before buying a Neu motor separately. I applaud Castle for boldly going in this direction (as they did with the MM) as it will finally make electric 1/8 scale racers on even terms with nitro-powered cars. I'm sure in due time they will deliver the product they set out to create in the first place.

I got my money refunded from Tekno today for the MMM. I will purchase it once it is out and i hear there are no issues with the 2nd version. Money I can use for better things.

None. You can solder leads directly into the female plugs on the esc, with your own choice of plugs on the motor and esc wires.

He is probably hard at work doing his best to get them out by the 13th which is when CC predicted they would start shipping the damaged V1MMM's... or at least I hope what I said is true... he hasn't posted all week either... hmmm.

to make it...
