Has anyone noticed the differences in the new update of software?

yes i have seems more responsive quicker of the mark

you guys need to do more research on these systems , castle is not the be all of electronics , i know hobbywing has far to go but so does castle they are far from perfect see video .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JvRtJhrW5Q

just to clarify that was the older ezrun systems he reviewd and yes they where pretty crapp . the tekin is pc programable vie pc so is the ezrun vie there program box posted in my link , hope this helps some what :mdr:

I have raced the same MMM for two years plus hours of practice with zero problems! But if I do happen to have a problem with my esc I know that their customer service is but a phone call away and the problem will be taken care of! You did read at the end of the video that Castle replaced the esc the next day, now that's real warrantyservice. Try that with Hobbywing :lol:

yes they have a great warrantie but here is the thing as in the other video its something you need but dont whant to use , i think castle systems defo need that warrantie with a 40% fail rate its not good , i have yet to have a hobbywing system fail on me and for the price that castle charge for there systems if they do fail i could replace the system atleast twice over thanks :yes:

Err I think u have never tried a hobbywing product before? I have burnt afew n got all free replacements including my friends.

I have never paid for repairs before. Top service n top quality. I raced with tekin rx8 n monster n beat them all.

Tell me where you get the 40% failure rate from? Links?

I did try on three occasions to email Hobbywing with minor issues about programing and received no response, that would never happen with Castle Creations.

Just because you can out drive someone using different electronics proves nothing as to the quality of the electronics, just that your a better driver :neutral:

did you not look at the video ???? buy squirral ???? :neutral:

as for your warranty , well you can purchase hobbywin in the U.S.A through vendors such as kershaw desighns here is a email i sent him today and he reply with this ,, "Dan Fischer" <Dan@KershawDesigns.com> Save Addresses

You can always come right through me for warranty work. The ESC is covered by a warranty for 1 year. The one thing I have seen not covered under the warranty is if the esc gets wet enough that water penetrates the casing and getting deep into the electronics.

If the ESC goes bad within about the first month, I replace it right away. After that, I would have to have it sent out to be inspected. The distributor I have has been very good about the time it takes to have the ESC's looked at.

Dear sir iam very intrested in the new xerun hobbywing brushless system to be specific the 150amp unit they are a very good price , my concern is if for what ever reason this unit should fail how would i go about getting it repaird ??? as i understand they are made overseas . do they come with a warrantie from you or the manafacturer ?? if so what are the details of this and help appreciated. thanks MR .S. PREECE

i know the old ezrun C3 AND C4 had problems with softwear . and it looks like they still have but the new xerun systems i just carn,t fault and as above if purchased through a good vendor in the USA warrantie is not a problem i understand that a retailer named hobbypartz.com also in the united states also does this hope this clears things up .thanks :mdr:

Yes I did see the video, the guy didn't even know that the Tekin was PC programmable :rofl: and his review of the Hobbywing and their CC was less than stellar!

lol iam sure you know much more about r/c than squirral does . if you read the comment underneath his video all is explaines but i guess you know much better , :sarcastic:
