Im kinda afraid to cutoff the Shrink wrap as I can see two PC boards inside, It also seems that the wire is soldered flat to the PC board not through.

What did you replace the ctr diff with? An apple? Maybe a picture of a ctr diff?

...I tried an apple but the juice got everywhere...i tried a picture of a diff but the power pick-up JUST wasnt there...I ended up with a HellFire center diff and that seems to be the ticket

I will personally try the bowling pin in my mlst, see if that helps the chronic crappy diff issues, thnaks for the idea Clod!

I tried my CC Bec today and like it better than the CCU(cheapo chinese unit) that I had on it before. I only ran it at 6v, but my novak fan seemed to spin faster then the CCU set at 6v. Most likely a better made bec, and at 20 bucks not a bad deal!

I have been running my CC bec for about a month now in my e maxx and really love it. I have it set up for 6.3v and my fans are probably a little stressed but they are working fine. I have some where around 800 ma constant load and then my high torque servo can bring that up to around 2 amps at 5v. Nothing to heavy but for 24 at my LHS it is the best bec around.

Looks like a little ESC!

Mine have been running flawlessly. The only issue I have now is my servos overheat from the full power flow.
