    This is the first I have seen it ... but I did notice that the Shrink rap will have to be cut as it covered the water cooling.

      NICE...looks like 4 caps installed...maybe just two. To be programed by a computor it must come with software and maybe USB cable.

          A company dumb enough to cover up the water fittings with the shrink wrap would not make me comfortable using their stuff!

            I've had to cut back the shrink wrap on all of my Castle Hydra esc's. Although not completely covered by shrink wrap, not enough of the aluminum water tube was exposed.

              I pointed that out to Patrick at the CC booth at RCX some time ago. He said he'd address it.

                  Price is great, nice to see more esc's coming out and prices going down. BTW Ditto on the CC shrink wrap.

                    I've had to trim back the Etti 150's shrink wrap also.

                          You know what Ryan, your absolutely right! I shrink wrapped them myself so I could velcro it down.

                            This new ESC looks a lot like the Swordfish that Steven posted.

                              I just got a new 240 also and neither size tubing that I got from OSE seems to be able to fit. The tubes are too close together. What is the secret?
