While my V1 is still going strong, I just had a V2 die on me. It is in a lst with a hacker c50 11xl running 6s lipo. Gearing is 24/59 with the FOC tranny gearing swap. I had run it for about 15mins, landed a jump and it died.

Weird, you could switch it off and then back on and the lights would flash and beep, but when pulling the trigger it would completely die. I tried it with a rec pack and the red wire pulled and it worked for a few seconds. Is this the common BEC failure that everyone reports?

I will say that it was super powerful when it was running. I pulled about 2000mah in 10mins, but the esc was staying cool, fan would come on for a few seconds every few minutes. Motor was around 150f during both runs. Killer setup, really fun!!

I will have to call CC on monday and see if they will send me a replacement with a return mailer...
