Thanks for the replies. My battery packs are not the cheep ones. Most are 7.2V 1500mah packs, also have some 1600mah packs.
Even though I don't have a reversing ESC I think I'll add the diodes to protect the controller.
Haven't had any more issues with dead packs. May have been defective from the beginning.
Along with adding the diodes I am going to upgrade wiring to a heavy guage with more strands. Also looking at different connectors. I hope to cut down some resistance in the system.
I hope this weekend is nice so I can try the super H again.
Has anyone had an issue with the motors trashing there controller?
The first I heard about it was on the offshoreelectrics web site.
makes sense the the motors could send a feedback to the ESC.
