the thicker the gauge of wire the more heat, flux and skill you need. A good 100+ watt soldering iron is a good investment.

Been there, done that, Fried it. It did last a while just like the Mamba Max did. Funny how they all smell the same.

I would like for Castle to take some time, get copious amounts of feedback, and then release a v3 later on down the line. Or maybe an HV Monster that may make this one obsolete.

Question G2R to a G3R conversion??

Anyone know if it possible to buy the parts to turn a G2R into a G3R? is it even that much easier to change the rear diff?

That was my point too. If you need a HV controller, odds are that you're running too much voltage for the CCBEC to be of use to you. But maybe not.

That is correct. The HV series do not come with a BEC. You'll need to buy the CCBEC or simular UBEC, or stick with the reciever pack if you're running so much voltage that you need an HV controller.
