I was trying to remove my MMM from my buggy so i could take it apart to get some gravel out of it. After loosening it from the double sided tape with a screwdriver i just grabbed it and kinda pulled it away from the ecs mount and what was left of the double sided tape. Well i guess it was still attached pretty well because it came apart leaving the base of the esc still stuck to the mount and i had the bulk of the MMM in my hand. Since it came apart like that it ripped the all 3 of the reciever wires off of the control board, solder and all. Kinda looks like a bad solder job maybe? I can see where the wires used to be but can not see what they would have been soldered to. Do you think this is a warranty issue or am i stuck paying to get it fixed? Isnt a solder joint supposed to be stronger than the wire? I honestly didnt use much force for this to happen.



Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.
