purchased 2 (onewas a present for my brother)from tower, also flying in florida, 90 outside, brother crashed his, 3 passes, esc overheated, shut all power off to everything,destroyed fuse, after esc cooled off, power was restored, plane is on its way back to tower/flyzone for investigation , flew my seawind, 2 passes 1/2 to 3/4 throttle,waterlanding, taxied back, esc extremely hot, any longer in air would have met same demise, tower/flyzone just sent another esc for my plane, esc is the same one for the beaver ,its only 40 amp, may need to go to 60amp, or ventilate cabin .
will update with results from tower/flyzone
