the fact that you have to pay for customs has nothing to do with the phyiscal price of the esc, just location

and yes out of the 3000 V2s from the last production run.

Mine failed too, and its not as if it doesnt happen to any thing else,....cars have recalls
stuff breaks, you cant expect perfection 100% of the time with no failure rate, it just dont happen


Edit- and yes RE DESIGN, would you have rather had a bad v1 which had double the failure rate and have your whole truck burn to the ground

I think you should and everyone else should look at it from both side's,if ther was a company in Canada and everyone from the State's had to send there stuff to Canada to get repaired and the product was a must have item and when it came out and it was loaded with problem's you mean to tell me you would'nt be upset and Bitching of course you would.Think of it like this I don't mind the fact that I have to send it back to Castle but it's the waiting game and it's not the time custom's hold's the stuff at the boarder it is how long the method of shipping take's and when you ask if you are willing to pay the difference in the cost and being told there's no policy,I don't know about anyone else from Canada but I'm not trying to sound like a Cry Baby,it just get's sickening listen to guy's like you who olny look at it from your side and know the you would be complaining alot if the role's were reversed.My Dad has a Company and I have to order stuff from Japan and Germany for him sometime's and all I know is this why when I can choose the slowest way to send it to Canada it take's around 6 to 7 day's to arrive at the door even Patrick told me in a PM that the slowest shipping method from usps get to China faster than Canada.When I track Shippment's it tells you when it enter's and leave's custom's and it is anywhere from a 3 hour to 2 day wait before it is released.And yes I know it's my choice to deal or not deal with Castle but they could at least do something to address this issuse.

No i wouldnt be upset, how can i be, you know from the beginning anything from the US MUST go through customs, you know its coming and you know that its gonna take time... just like you KNOW that i will take time to have the esc repaired or replaced. i waited 4 weeks for my MMM intially and then it fried 10 mins later- im not mad. i happens sometime we all just need to deal with it

Ok I think your missing the point custom's has nothing to do with it,I know it is going to have to go threw Custom's.We don't get return shipping as Canada Post won't accept a USPS Shipping Label at the Post office to return the product.I have been in the RC Hobby for more than 17 year's and have ordered alot of stuff and sent my share back for repair under warranty,now all I know sis this before it ever hit's custom's using USPS Prioirty Mail it can take 3 weeks to reach custom's,now using the same method to ship to China takes around 5 to 8 days tell me where the sense is in that.When a package can go farther in a lot less time using the same shipping method and does not do anything to fix the problem that's messed up and no I'm not saying Castle won't try to fix it but when aperson s willing to pay the difference and they say no that's messed up as well and I was never told it would take this long before I got my MMM.Plus when I move up one class in shipping threw USPS from Prioirty to express and it takes olny 3 to 5 days with express tht's really messed up whenit takes 3 weeks sometime's when using Priority shipping.

Amazing, 2 pages of bitching...

I would like to say that the 2nd V2 that I put in is still going strong, at the 15min mark...!
