I think the problem was a combination of using a motor that probably generates a lot of back emf (I doubt schulze test mega usa motors) and your wiring loom being so long add to that the fact your running through a eagletree device that probably adds quite a bit of inductance itself.
Needless to say if i were you running a big ass cap as close to your 18.61 as possible should help protect the esc from these transients that the mega is probably generating.
I would also say looking at the wiring you could easily reduce the length of your wires by half and still have slack.

The highest spikes from when the 18.97 failed was close to 75A. I'll see if the 18.61 can last long enough to give MGM time to fix all the bugs with their controllers. It would be strange if the 18.61 does last longer.
