The problems have been solved, I picked up a Castle BEC yesterday and the problems have gone away. I think from now on when I set up a new heli I will just put a 20 dollar seperate BEC on it and not have to worry.
\Contact EFLITE, if its faulty, they might warntee the ESC.
I was simply making he point that you were bashing eflite because you had one bad experience with them. Ive been flying and repairig eflite for over 5 years, and yes, there is some :"junk" on them, and occasionaly there are bummer equipment that dails, but for the most part, they are reliable as an entry level model.
SIDENOTE: I too really hate waiting for parts..... its the worst part of Helis... we have a heli, and almost a complete second one witting in our flight boxes as "spares" because we never know when we can't get parts. I buy "beater helis" from people for less than what most the parts cost from the LHS.... cept usualy, its the parts I need that are also wrecked on the beaters LOL.
