The built in self destruct NEVER fails! It's just a case of when :)

But if the ESC is no longer usable because of the wires being pulled off, one could make the argument that the self descruct did fail during the life of the ESC and you would have no means to refute that argument because the ESC can no longer be used in a manner that would enable the self-destruct to function.

Now the auto destruct is the one part of a Castle esc that NEVER fails! And besides thats hooked in through the power wires not the rx wires

Thanks for the info. Looking on the Castle website it states warranty is voided by physical damage including crash. I guess I'll have to pay $70 to get it fixed. Still trying to decide if it's worth it. $70 is half of a new one. I can't repair it myself as the wires took small pieces of the circuit board with them. I guess Castle will fail to repair the failure of the auto fail to fail. Lol! I'm a little disappointed. I know the crash isn't Castle's fault, but I think just a couple screws to hold the case together would have prevented the damage. Anyways, thanks again.
