Hi coolhandcountry & Gustav,
Thanks for the input. Yes, the big jumps were done using the BK 9920 cable tied to the rear chassis brace. However, for the MGM, I have fashioned a small plate out of some spare blank PCB secured using 3 screws where the radio box used to be. This plate is lifted a little above the chassis using 3mm nuts. The esc sits on top with double sided tape & a couple of big cable ties round the plate & esc. Last I check, it was very securely fastened.
In hindsight, I have also used heatshrink to cover the esc with cut outs for the 2 heatsinks. Maybe this was causing the thermal overload. I noticed that in the end, the heatsink have been blistered indicating pretty high temp. on the esc.
More thoughts needed to make this thing work then. In the meantime, my BL mini inferno ST should be ready by this weekend. Hopefully, that will tide me over while I struggle with this.
Thanks guys for your support. Keep it coming while I ponder whether to spend more money to get this thing working again.
Regards,
Joe Ling
