I am sorry that most of you feel like I am trolling this thread but it really makes me cringe when I read things like "We use a much better switch and receiver plug that cost a lot more, but do a job better" or " Heavier copper power boards, brand name components instead of recycled or knock offs". I used to have this esc's and que power was really good but the quality of materials was poor at best. Plastic case cracked in 3 out of 4 esc's I had and the switch usually broke even with the switch shoe goo to the car. Also, I work on electronics and had few friends ask me to solder post back into their boards because they came loose or simply wasn't soldered properly. My question to my tekin tech is: Are you using silver solder or 60/40? Those post came off easily to be silver soldered. Also any one the has ever ordered trough digikey or mouser knows that those switches go for pennies or fractions of a penny for mass production. Don't call them "lot more", is not true, lets be honest with people.

Why the rant? While I liked the power they produced I was upset that for $214 that I paid It only lasted a handful of races, 3 of the 4 I owned. To find out that they knew there was issues with it and to tell me to either open the case an put foam under the board or just get Kyosho gel tape was unacceptable (Of course they could of repaired or replaced it for a fee). You should of recall the defective product IMO. I am not a pro or a veteran racer but If I go to a single race and see more than 5 dying... come on, there is a quality problem....... Let's be honest here. Honesty goes a long ways. *drop the mic*
