Hi
I own a MMPro and i like it very much, but iīve got a problem with it and that is the size because iīm running TC and itīs really big when we compare it with other ESC from other brands.
I would like to see MMpro to become the same size as others īcause then i could balance my car better, now itīs to big to manage that issue.
So PdelCast thereīs any possibility to give us a smaller esc?
thanks
Joao

Hey guys, I hope spmeone from the snowbirds race that ran the MMP in 17.5 touring car can post a setup or anyone else have a starting setup. What about adjusting the throttle profile....what should the curve look like for rubber tire 17.5 tc racing? Track size would be 100'x48'
Thanks..........Dwayne Flodell

it's actually the same size as a speed passion. everyone else omits the depth of the solder posts sticking out in their width (footprint) dimensions. if the mmp were to leave the edge with all the connections outside of the case, it would spec a reasonably sized footprint. add to that the fact that the caps are all included, and it's really pretty decent. take off the cheap plastic fan and it will look/fit a lot better...

For anyone running 17.5 what are your settings?
I did a lot of testing this weekend with a SP v3 17.5, I could not get it to run as fast as my Tekin. I tried gearing from 4.1 to 5.7 and timing from 35 to 50deg, nothing seem to make it rip down the straight. My sons car with a Tekin and same motor is 3 tenths faster and noticeable faster on the straight.

Hi Guys,
I have been running the MMP for a few months now and it's worked fantastic, i'm really happy with it.
But today my sensored BL motor arrived and i can't get it to operate with the MMP.
I've changed the settings in the software and tried it in both "sensored only" and "Smart sense" modes, but rather than rotate the motor just vibrates violently.
I am running V1.24 if that makes any difference.
Is it something i've done wrong, a bad motor?
I've also tried swapping around the 3 motor wires and i've checked the motor sensor connections and cable, all look good but still the same.
Cheers
Mark

Amazing how well it works when it's wired up correctly
I did read through the manual before connecting it, but it had no section on sensored motors, it only said that BL motors are not polarity conscious so it doesn't matter which way round the wires go.
Might be worth adding a section on sensored motors, just for noob dumd asses like meself
Thanks Mike, works a treat now

Jochim, how can you run that much timing without something going wrong? 30 on the motor and 40 on the esc? Just going to be using the MMP tuesday for the first time and do not want to blow anything up or run into issues. I am going to try it with Orca fixed timing 17.5, Speedpassion V3 17.5 and LRP X12 17.5. I will let you know what I figure out.

Two more questions:
1)Cheat mode could be used with mod.motors?
2)How performs a sensorless motor on cheat mode?
