My single complaint would be a better switch housing. I use the single screw side mount but the plastic is thin and gives up eventually. Switch works fine though.
Lucky you. I was lucky like that with one out of the 4. Fortunately for me I switch to HW and no issues in over a year running them.
Even not finishing qualifiers due to ESC failure I still locked the A main in both classes with over 150+ entries in the class and 50+ on the other. I guess I should retire like you suggested. LMAO
I can solder as well. And I am good at it too, that's why I am still getting a paycheck every week tho. LOL
