I've had the system for about 6 months and no problems. And it happens to be my first BL r/c. I'm just hoping I can buy just the cap from Novak and not have to drop another $250 for the system. It's weird because with a short, I should be looking for an exposed wire correct? When we built this truck we did everything possible to make sure no wires touched, deans plugs, always checking the sleeves. And not to mention my chassis is 75% Carbon Fiber. But I'll be on the phone tomorrow with Novak tech's to see what my option are to repair and prevent this from ending my day of fun.
