The more I think about it, the more this sounds like the bargain of the decade. And if memory serves, there are rather a lot of V1s and V2s that were sent in for replacement that werent actually broken/ only minor damage caused by dead BECs, so that means this will be a limited offer type affair right?

Don't do it -- the main issue with the V1 and V2 was the inductance of the switch wiring harness. It fried the BEC. That's why we are offering the refurbed V2 without a switch.

In the V3 we changed the method used to turn the ESC on and off, which solved the issue.
