I know this is really late, but I have to say I was pretty bummed out when I recieved the ESC.

im still pretty new to this hobby, and it may sound silly, but I have wanted one of these controllers for a really long time and theyve always been discontinued during my experience, so there was alot of sentimental value as motivation behind the purchase, I did jump on it rather quickly I felt.

So when it said New and never used, I assumed it was..... well, new and not used. But clearly thats not the case, as the cables and heatshrink show clear wear, the plastic housing has cracks all over it and is also splitting at the seam, the cooling tubs are all scratched up and dented on a few ends, and its just the only ESC I have now, as I foolishly sold my other one for a ridiculously low price as a knee jerk reaction..... gotta admit I saw some of these things in the picture, but it just doesnt comprehend the same way vs in your hands, obviously.

just had to get that off my chest, sorry for the meaningless bump >.<

on the bright side, shipping was EXTREMELY fast. lol, something that is very valued here, I know that for a FACT.

The esc is new and has not been used, if you look at the recorded info you'll see it still has the factory test data. I looked before posting it and left it for the buyer to see. Here's a blown up view and I'm not seeing anything wrong with the cooling tubes. I sent an email to Castle to see if they have replacements for the case, as I remember this was an issue and I found this thread here on OSE. I honestly didn't look that close at the case. As for the cables, there's still powder on them that rubs off over time, so again it has not been used, it's been sitting in a drawer. It was not in the box because it wouldn't fit with the cap bank on and that's why it was sent separately in the shipment to you. And for the heat shrink, I will send you some to replace it.

After posting I went and checked another I have that was still in the box. It has 3 of the 4 screw holes cracked.

Castle does have cases, if it'll make things better I'll have one shipped to you or refund you $20.

[tlandauer]

Cracked cases on these are not uncommon, I have had to send my brand new one back to get it replaced, the tubes and how they are "glued" to the heat sink is also inconsistent.

[tlandauer]

Haha, didn't realize you linked my post, yes, I was referring to that experience. They did send a good one although l couldn't tell it was the same one with a new case or a different unit altogether.
