So great service!

that's good to hear, I m waiting for my new esc too

Mine 150A just died today.Lasted 3 weeks.
First motor stopped ...then go ....then stop again...loaded a fresh lipo pack...then puffff.... lots of smoke comming from the esc.
Thats great,at first 80A smoked then 150A smoked also.
This was powered by 4S lipo and recently I've loaded latest firmware from HW.
They should rename their escs to Hobbywing Fireworks

I believe I will pay a little more and get a Tekin.

No.With this one all settings were default (punch and timming).
