sorry for the confusion, I meant the board in the esc. Not the motor board.

Went through this same problem about two years ago. Couldn't find one anywhere so I called up Orion to try to get a replacement and they replied with the following -

"The sensor board is not something you can purchase separate. If the speed controller is old then you might wish considering purchasing a new esc. If you a hobby shop in your area take it there to see if they can do some testing to find out the specific issue."


Basically you're SOL. Pretty disappointing.

Yeah, it was a pipe dream. I have another one acting funny. lol. it is throwing sensor error green/red blinking lights from time to time. I keep changing sensor wires, but it comes back pretty quick. sigh. At 200 a pop, I might just go with the hw v3.1 stock spec next time.

The do sell replacement sensor boards. They just so happen to come in the same box as an entire ESC, and come pre-installed in a new ESC for you.
