The title says 680mF, but the cap is actually 680uF. Just a factor of 1,000 different. Not a big deal, but someone might make an issue of it...

I use 470uF caps. Two did the job on my quark. Tried 4 but no difference, but keep them on.

Thanks for finding that data for me.

I understand (and appreciate) overengineering the FETs, but I was actually referring to replacing the cap on that transorb module to allow use on other ESCs. But, now I see that the transorbs would have to be replaced as well for higher V versions. Might as well build a module from scratch...

Just want to take a minute to say thanks for answering the various questions, especially considering they're on the CC subforum.

My MMM caps are also dented, but I can't find 330uF caps.
Can I use lager uF caps? Thanks.

Yes you can, but the voltage still needs to be at least 25v and must be low-ESR type. Whatever you find will likely be physically larger and harder to mount cleanly.
