Hv recall

[padrino]

I expect it will take at least a couple of weeks to turn them around if not longer. Are there any on the open market yet so those of us that don't want the downtime can buy another? I have seen many threads confusing rev.2 and rev.3 with XL 2, it may be worth sending out a follow-up clarification since many are fighting battles on what the real answer is regarding affected controllers.

Heck ya, I'd buy another as long as I knew it was goign to be the newest version that DID NOT need to be sent in. Anyone have a clue where those critters can be found?

Hi,
The listing of Mamba XL on Towerhobby which is indicated as VS2. Are they the latest rev with the modified controller board?

Since they don't have them in stock yet, I'd assume so.

Won't take a couple of weeks -- more like 1-2 days. The fix is really quick and easy -- it's a board swap.

Thanx!

Thanks for the note Patrick, I was saying that because all of my repairs in the past have taken 4+ weeks but if this is different then I feel better about sending the XL in without a backup ESC..... but if I can buy an XL 2 on the market somewhere I will :)
