Yeah, I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call Flame Mammoth a willing maverick, not so much because I think he didn't know (like you stated in your edits, his dialogue makes clear he knew what he's doing, even if he DOES sound too much like a stereotypical idiot in the English dub), but more because it technically conflicts with something Sigma said to Vile in the opening to Vile Mode (which is still canon to MHX overall thanks largely to it showing the beginning portion of Vile's encounter with Sigma in his cell in Day of Sigma), basically how his plan required "someone who could go maverick on their own accord", which strongly implied that none of the mavericks, not even Sigma, actually did so on their own accord and that only Vile was capable of it.
