Ahh dissing castle again
. Upon failure they not only (potentially, depending how it fails) send full voltage to the servo, but to the receiver as well, which will usually kill it.
Yet another reason to stick to the internal BEC. :)
The castle esc is also apparently a little more noisy than the other brands mentioned (koolflight, herc, dimension) and can cause glitching if you have it near enough your antenna or rx.
