When ESC's go boom?

[domwilson]

For those who have had their ESC's go bad on plugin or when upgraded to new batteries; what batteries were you using when the problem occurred.

Please include ESC brand, model, battery brand and Mah rating.

CC HV180
10s1p Elite 4900 25c

That was shortly after the HV series came out... that may be relevant.

I read your post, I really hope he does... I personally handed my HV 180 to him and the SW Engineer that developed the CC ESCs, although they replaced it w/o a problem I never heard the verdict on the controller, I hope it helped to identify the problem.

I take it you just had one go boom? What brand? model? batteries? Conditions?

Trying to narrow it down to if it's a brand of batteries, ESC's, Mah or "C" ratings.

[Joe Ford]

Nope...signing up for the thread so I can access it quickly. Works well when engineers ask what your setups were.

It is great that a manufacturer is actively trying to resolve customer issues. Just like the "Good Ol' Days."

This is so good.
I have a brand new HV240 and I will follow all the posts regarding these problems.
I will not use it until there is a fix for these problems.
The way I see this is that it's ok to have problems with a product, but what defines the manufacturer and the quality of the product is what he does to fix it.
I have a good feeling in this case.
