Alright, Please read a bit more carefully this time, The bottom half of the case was still stuck to the battery try and gave me a hell of a hard time to come off, I used double sided servo tape. It wasn't a bad way to hold a MMM down that caused this but rather the case opening under force, In my manual it said nothing about having to strap the top of the case down so it doesn't separate from the bottom. Also none of the pictures on castles website showed the ESC being held down by nothing more than double sided tape. I understand the forces these go through but I would think the case should at least be able to handle them.
