Smoking ESC

[lutach]

Lito,

I already told the factory about the caps being too close to the PCB and it's causing some problems. Please post this in the ESCs thread so other can see it. See if it was just the caps that went bad and if possible take pictures of the heat sink off to see if any of the MOSFETs fried. That way we can see if it was the caps or the MOSFET(s). Also, if it's just the caps and after you change them and the ESC works fine, set the timing to middle. The low timing is more for 2 pole motors and 4 pole motors works good in the middle timing. Let me know what you want to do, I'll help you the most I can. I feel really bad for this to have happened.

Regards,

Luciano.
