Zippy R may not be china made, but I can guarantee it isn't enerland.

Couldn't really find an appropriate thread to ask so I chose what looked like the most active. So how long has it taken CC to send replacement v3's? I sent mine just over a week and a half ago. Just wondering when I can expect confirmation from CC for when they ship back the replacement v3.

Nick,

We were reviewing your V3 MMM repair and had a few questions. The set-up
you are running appears to be a bit aggressive and may have contributed
to the failure. This should not have caused the controller to fail, but
it may be causing excessive stress on your battery or motor. We fear
your motor may have been demagnetized during this process, which may
have lead to the ESC failure. Again it should have not have failed, but
if the motor is demagnetized, abnormal problems may continue. I would
highly recommend sending the motor in to Steve Neu for inspection, just
to be on the safe side. If you wouldn't mind sending me a run down of
your set-up, we can make suggestions on how to prevent any future
problems. We will be replacing your failed V3 with a new version, but we
just want to make sure the set-up is proper to guarantee continuous
operation. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
