Mine put out a small puff of smoke when I hit the brakes the first time in race conditions (blew a small circuit in the ESC) but never quit or had any other issues. I have raced with it with no problems at all.
yeah, thats what I was talking about. How can they recommend something when it will void the ESC warranty if you do run it? Weird.
Anyone from AE wish to comment on this?
