Nice to see that someone other than myself is "self-promoting"!

Most people just call me arrogant, though...

I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron but I can't unsolder SMD parts as well. What I did was to use a brutal wire cutter & chomp away at the chips until I severe the connections & destroy the parts. I did use a desolering gun to attempt to suck away the excess solder for show show only. Couldn't be sure how much it helped. I did however use a multimeter to check that there is no short between pads but also take note that some pads are common.

In my experience, running an external BEC without the mod will not work. U need to remove the parts. I was already running an external BEC in my V1 buggy conversion when it died & I had to follow BrianG's way.

Here is something to try if you dont want to void your warranty, I know external bec and fan might not solve the problem but it could take the load of internal bec and rule out problem with fan, fan wire/plug
