Adding the caps to the input isn't going to help if that is the case you will need to replace the 3 mounted to the board, Shouldn't really be that hard. Each cap is in parallel with each phase not the input. The Mamba Max is setup just like that. I'll give you $10 for it.

there are a few problems with replacing the caps. i don't know a safe way of removing the old caps, and the new caps need to be a specific size. otherwise, the two halfs of the esc won't mesh together right. i'd be willing to pay $15-20 for someone to repair it for me.
They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
