I guess this is what I get for poking fun at Tom the other day for trying to burn down MIR.
I bought his XXXT form this guy off CRC's board. I have bought from him before and no problems.
Anyway the XXXT I bought from him had a Mamba 7700 with ESC in it. It looked good and we did not have a charged battery to test it when I picked it up. I took his word for it since I had bought form him before.
Well it has sat on a shelf for near 2 weeks. Last night I got it ready to plug up. Plugged a fresh LIPO in and pop pop pop pop!! Sparks and a small flame comes out of the ESC..
I near ruined my new LIPO trying to get it unplugged..kinda funny watching a fat boy like me scramble to put out a fire in my little building full of cars.. for those of you who have seen it. Darn things stink too.. I kept getting it confused with my farts.. :lol:
Anyway..so ill be looking for yet another brushless system
