My ESC was damaged during a crash a few weeks ago. I didn't know that it was damaged so I ran another set of batteries through it right after the crash as the hull was still able to run. The boat ran fine as did the ESC but I am wondering now did I just get lucky. What is the worst thing that could happen if I run this way? Am I just looking at the chance of it failing or am I flirting with it blowing up? Is that possible.105863105864

I don't think I would risk using that esc again. Good reason to get that Seaking 180 you were thinking about.

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. It's a bummer I was hoping to be able to use this on till I got the Seaking..
