Quark brains board dead, fix? or MMM?

[zeropointbug]

haha, me too actually. It sure has lasted a long time... ancient really in average controller lifetime's, especially for a Quark. Almost 3 years old now I think.

Anyways, does anyone have a spare brain board that they don't need? Or should I just let it die with dignity and get a MMM or RX8?

I've got a couple functional quarks I cold be convinced to part with reasonably.
A 125 and an 80 I think. LMK if you are interested.

Okay thanks guys, if I stick with the Quark, then I want to do a 'brains' transplant on Quarkenstein, as in I would like to keep the power board and cap bank part of it. I just want to do it right, I don't really have experience with 'desoldering' little solder posts like this.

Would you guys recommend a MMM over a RX8 though, and vice versa? What are the advantages to both in racing environment? Quarkenstein only ran about 10F over ambient temp, placed on a mount over front shocks.
