And just a few years ago, I used to hear that BK has a A+ customer service.

You guys should not depend so much on the " customer service" thing.

Treat it good, treat you good!

Phhhhhh..

Every electronic component breaks eventually, esp under the condits we ask them to perform. CS/support will be one of the big things holding BL back from going mainstream. How many will tolerate (esp nitro converts) a 6mos repair turn-around on a $200+ controller that fried? You'd miss the entire driving season. RCM Mike is awesome, but he can't be expected to fix everyone's controller that breaks (or anyone's really, he a good guy for helping.)

For the various faults of the MMax (which there are few) one of them is not CS. My wife fried mine accidently, I sent it back ($5 shipping), and had a brand new one on my doorstep in 3wks w/ an apology for taking so long. :043:
No matter what I do to it, the repair fee will only be $50 once the warr expires (which is an entire year.) For this reason alone I will be hard pressed to trade it away when it worked so well for me in the 8mos I've ran it.

Just curious guys, why all the fuss about 4mm shafts? Is it gearing? Because I've had no trouble finding the proper size pinions through Mike here on the site. Just wondering what the issue is for my knowledge. Thanks.

No problem. And one other thing . . . when I first set up my system I had a 15t pinion and it was sick. Just too fast for a track. The motor and ESC were getting a little too hot for me so I went down to the 13t pinion. No problems since then, and it seems to work better for racing too. Just FYI.

I understand better now. Thanks!

I've never tried a customer service befor, though. And that does not mean I haven't fried a controller either.

Things I've fried are,

Futaba MC800 Controller.
Kontronik 6-18-40 controller.
Kontronik 10-32-55 controller.

Well, boo on whoever the hell Mike gets the Lenhers from - they lag BIGTIME. I've been waiting for my 1950/6 Hi-Amp for 6 months!

Mike is great though, has answered all of my 1.6 zillion questons and hasn't ignored for me even though I plague him for updates lol.

have any 22 series lehner there?.... :)

Are they already OOS?!!

They are.

Hey Mike, do you have any 2280 series motor in stock? I need to replace my fried 2280...

Holly hellfree!! What are you running a 2280 in? A boat? What size shaft does it have?

I "was" running it on my E-maxx, then it suited well for the GST.. then it died... 5mm shaft was on it... Now I need a new one :(

You have any old pics of it installed? Which ESC was you using with it?

just click on the link under my nickname. I guess Mike has no 22 series in stock..

Nice. aqwut I sent you a pm as not to hijack this thread....well, anymore then I already have anyways. Sorry bout that guys.
