hi, im having a bit of a problem with my Hara Twister 2.0.

foolish me have been running the ESC without no shotky and powercap so the Brake-Fets burned out. well its just one but the brake doesnt work anymore...

is there a shop anywhere in the world that sells Brake-fets and ships international?

I'd be glad if someone could give me a link or something. my LHS cant get this and contacting Ko-propo directly ends up in me having to send in the ESC for repairs wich will cost me about 20 dollar just to get it to ko-propo without even the repairs and the shipping back.
i guess i can solder them in my self so that wouldnt be a problem

Many Thanks

Mark

Mark-
If you've damaged the brake FETs, more then likely you have also damaged something else. You may not notice it at first until it stops working. Trust me, I fix them everyday.
