This served as a repair in my case, having upgraded my main and tail motors to the point that they overloaded the controller, and the MOSFETs simply melted off after about 3 minutes! I used this service and now everything works awesome! I'm using a Slo-Max-type 370 motor, a direct-drive tail, and a 3c 11.1v LiPo, which definitely taxes the capabilities of a stock controller, especially in Arizona.

Mike took excellent care of me and I had my controller back on my heli and flying in less than a week. If you are going to upgrade your motors and want a bomb proof solution, check this out. It might work for other models too.
