Ok I have been playing around with it for a while and never bothered to hook it up to the castle link and never turned on the lipo cutoff.

But I have a question, the manual that I have is for all the systems not just the MMM. So when setting the lipo cutoff do you select 6V or 12V since there are two 2S packs?

Also there is an auto-lipo feature that you can use to determine between 2S and 3S lipos automatically, can that work when running two 2S or two 3S packs?

I tried to call castle support but was on hold forever and then tried to e-mail them but their automatic reply said it could be 3-4 days before a response would be sent.

Thanks

Set it for 12v..the ESC sees the input as 4s because there are only one set of power wires coming from the ESC....if you set it for 2s(6v) it will run down till it sees 6 total volts, that would be 3v per pack...
That is what I was thinking but just wanted to check to be sure. But can you still use the auto-lipo function? In the manual it says so you can switch from 2S to 3S and not change settings, but can this also detect 4S to 6S?
