that thing is amazing!!! sweet rig cow! im building an rc8e from scratch and was wondering how you liked the mmm combo because that is the system i am looking at.

Thank You

I love the MMM it is an absolute beast! With the start power on low and the punch control on 90% it can easily pull a wheelie at 30+ mph! Standing still it will do 5' violent flying backflips.... My shocks are not to happy about that lol... Overall I love it although admittedly I have little to compare it to as this is my first brushless 1/8

Good luck on the build my friend... These are kick ass rigs!

Heath

thanks for the info bro!! seeing your rig makes me want to buy SO many parts right now lol

Looking good man! Definatly want some pics after thoes shinny new parts are installed as well as a VID!!!

A Zippy 25-30C 4000mah 6s1p so you're going with 25V...that should fly. BTW, have you had Zippy lipos before? I'd like to know if they are good or not but the only reviews I find are on sites that sell them...not that anyone would ever lie to sell something.

Sorry for the late reply buds The Zippy's may be cheap on price but they are not cheap on quality..... Killer bang for the buck and great performance! For the price they simply cannot be beat

Here is some updated pics my friends... Here she is naked although I have a newly updated NEU 1515/1y/f to install if i ever get the chance
