As of right now I don’t own a single castle product that hasn’t died on me. My phoenix hv 80 was sent in about a month ago due to strange problems. First off, they had my controller for over a week and didn’t even know it. I had to call and ask what was going on and they said they just found it and will start the repair. (No big deal, everyone makes mistakes) I just got a refurbished controller from them in the mail today. So after I solder connectors on it I plug it into castle link, change the timing and start up power, and put it in my boat. I plugged it in and heard the start up beeps and tested the motor. All is good. I walk to the pond plug it in and nothing. IT’S DEAD. No lights no beeps and it won’t connect to castle link. I’m furious right now. My boat has been sitting on the shelf for over a month now. I’ve invested hundreds of dollars in Castle’s “so called quality products” and they all seem like crap. I have china ESCs that are more reliable. Either way you look at it I’m stuck waiting even longer to get my boat running. We're looking at about two weeks if castle doesn't lose my esc again. You guys know how much it sucks not being able to run your boat. This is my only boat that I have and I just want to have some fun! I’m considering calling castle creations and telling them I’d rather not do business with them anymore and just buy a turnigy ESC. Please help me calm down.
