And yes i used Zippy (two 3s). But I have been using the same zippy packs with my savage flux for about 20 runs and they have been perfect. I also have use the same packs with my mamba max with 5700kv about 10 runs. So how does CC explain that? I will give them a call soon and hope to get it fix/replace. I think cc must stand by their products. It a good business practice to replace esc instead of losing customers.

Thank you for my laugh today! If you dont know why you smoked your esc then maybe you should try doing some research before you put your components into service. Amazing that guys like you want to blame castle for your ignorance. Sorry to be so blunt.
