So no, this isn't the case.
We are investigating right now -- but the failure rates are not all that high (regardless of the noise on the boards...)
We have also seen that most people don't have a problem, and then others toast 3, 4 or 5 controllers in a row. We are trying to figure out WHY some people toast many controllers, and others are just fine. It might be broken servos (we have seen broken digital servos damage switching BECs) or it could be bad motors, we just aren't sure yet.

I am running a brand new NEU1515 1.5D, Stock Servos. My last MMM ran FLAWLESSLY with a UBEC, until I changed setting in Castle Link. Up until now, I left it all at defualts.. even the LVC.
Yesterday, I changed the LVC to 12.8, Punch Control to 70% and modified the throttle curve a bit. 10 minutes later it jerked a bit at slower speeds and died. Motor never hit 100 and the MMM was still relatively cool. Didn't even smell like anything burnt. No lights nothing. Disconnected batts and threw them on the charger, tried another set of Batts and still nothing. Only running 4S.
Prior to the changes in Castle link.. I ran the snot out of it the weekend prior. Had a few runs that hit 55MPH with no real heat issues and no problems.
