2 blown 35v caps on Mod1 MM...???? - 12.15.2008, 07:54 PM

Well i just now got around to looking at this better, it happened weekend before last at at big race, it happend right at the begining of the race when i was lawn darted onto by another buggy..... and i saw it when i came into pit half way in (13 minutes) for my battery swap i was kinda worried but figured it still worked so why quit...... well it still works fine i just need to know what to do with it now......


One cap is completely toast and is about to fall off since it has come loose from the board, the middle one next to it has a nice fat dent in the end of it but is solid on the board.......id like to replace both but i dont have any of these and i dont have soldering iron until christmas (gave the hobbyshops back and even after christmas i wont have the right tip) ?????? what to do? can i just cut the busted one off and run on? i have an 1800 35v external cap along with all the other mod1 stuff from arthur.

what are my options, anyone in the christmas spirit who would be completely confident fixing it if i pay shipping both ways and for the 2 new caps.....


any ideas
