U managed to update? Anyone knows? Where's the link?

I have not tried to update the ESC, I have only been on a few times to play with the settings. Honestly I will probably not update unless some great new feature is added. I love the way my EZRun controllers drive right now.

I buy anything Hobbywing from Hobbypartz.com. These guys want our business; so of course they are doing everything they can to give great customer service and answer any questions. Hell, with the friendly responses I have gotten, I bet they would answer your questions even if you didnt buy from them.

You really get screwed when you buy from the no-name Ebay sellers. They care not where your product is going or what happens to it at any point after the sale.

I have raced the same MMM for two years plus hours of practice with zero problems! But if I do happen to have a problem with my esc I know that their customer service is but a phone call away and the problem will be taken care of! You did read at the end of the video that Castle replaced the esc the next day, now that's real warrantyservice. Try that with Hobbywing

yes they have a great warrantie but here is the thing as in the other video its something you need but dont whant to use , i think castle systems defo need that warrantie with a 40% fail rate its not good , i have yet to have a hobbywing system fail on me and for the price that castle charge for there systems if they do fail i could replace the system atleast twice over thanks

I did try on three occasions to email Hobbywing with minor issues about programing and received no response, that would never happen with Castle Creations.

Just because you can out drive someone using different electronics proves nothing as to the quality of the electronics, just that your a better driver
