I would like to see the Castle Repair department post pictures of the worst solder jobs they have seen.
I have been traveling all over the US this holiday week and every flying field and driving track I have been at has had a huge number of terrible solder jobs on ESC's and battery packs. Don't get me wrong, I'm not the best in the world at soldering, but what I saw made me shiver. These days, electronics carry a lot of current. Bad soldering can cause more than component failure, fires and injury can result.
I can only imagine the steaming piles that the Castle Repair shop must see daily. So, please Castle, show us some of the nightmares people send in!
