Hello again!

Just before my vacation I did a final test run, for apx 4 minutes. I thought the ESC shut down the operation due to heat or low V on the Lipo's. When checking the Lipos it was at decent level, but did not think much more about it.

After installing the cooler I noticed that the ESC was blown... The rotor spun a few revs, and then stopped - anyhow did the heat continue to build up, even with no throttle. The ESC was broken.

Unfortunately did the Schulze team go on a 4 weeks vacation just that week, so I just recently sent it for repair (2 weeks ago).

For the Aluminium: Surprisingly it still hold up, no bent parts or so.

I'll get back when I have some more information to share. I have some more ideas for how to take care of the flex in the shock towers :-)
