Oops! This really sucks!

The solder connections didn't fail from what I'm seeing, the solder pads lifted from the board. If you've had it less than a year and can provide a copy of the receipt, it may be covered under warranty. It takes quite a bit of force to rip the solder pads out of the board, but when the case isn't helping hold the wires in place and you yank on those wires, it can rip the solder pads off. It will be up to the repair department and the date of purchase. If it is over a year old, you cannot provide a receipt or the repair department deems it non-warranty, it will cost $70.00 to get it replaced. The $70.00 will get you a new ESC, a new one year warranty and includes shipping back to you.
