Mine burned. I put the Max back in and it is fine. Same motor, same connectors. The only difference is one is a MMM and one is a MM...and one works and one doesn't.

In that case, it could just have been a bad FET, it could have been a bad solder joint on a FET, or a solder joint could have cracked on a FET.

Send it in, we'll fix it up. :)
