This in on a Tekno converted MBX6 buggy with Mamba Max Pro and Tekin 2050 sensored.

I have a 7955 on steering and an s9351 on throttle.

The BEC caught fire on the side where the inputs from the battery (4s) come in.



Any idea what caused this? I have another CC BEC but I dont wanna hook it up and try again if this same thing will happen.
Try contacting Castle. They have great customer support and can probably tell you what is wrong. I have a feeling, however, that maybe it was just a bad BEC...
