Closer look at Losi Xcelorin 1:8 esc

[florianz]

here some pics of the damaged power caps:




I have no idea what happened. Suddenly, there was hard cogging, then nothing worked. I connected it to the pc, nothing.

I am doing 1/8 BL for some years now, once an esc smoked during programming etc., but never experienced that.

Fortunately, I got a replacement some days ago, Horizon Hobby Germany. Excellent service!!! Thanks!!

Well, they all die one day... some say, the losi is cr@p, but here in Germany some guys are very happy with the xcelorin, despite heavy abuse.

I was very happy with the 1700kv Xcelorin motor, I hope I will be happy with the esc, too.

to be continued.
