which issue?

I have already popped the case. The only thing I can see different inside is the padding added under the board that apparently is supposed to stop the white fan plug from breaking off of the board. The pad doesnt work. The plugs still break off.

The fans still catch on the case and fry in no time. Now they just wait untill the esc reaches 150 degrees to do it.

The slot in the case where the Rx and switch wires is still too tight and will wear away the insulation. This should be opened up a little and some extrax electrical tape or shrink tube installed.
The only thing that appears to be fixed is the BEC failures. However... That was the big one. The rest of the problems can be fixxed with a dremel.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...


Silent...But Deadly
