i have never seen a esc burn up so fast.

so i put it in the box and put a defective tag on it and walked away hahahahaha

i love work at a hobbyshop. get to experiment on different things .
"DEFECTIVE" is not the term I would use. Sounds to me like you were not operating the esc within CC's documented specs.

Honestly...using that little esc in a monster truck, without a UBEC, and at 4S just doesn't make sense.
