Give Dave @ Top models a call (01745 592111), i'm not sure he can get them repaired anymore, but maybe worth a try? Hope this helps :)

What's wrong with it as I can change FETs and cables, etc?

I have an expensive paper weight collecting dust so if there is anyone who repairs esc's I would be interested as it cost me over £200 and only did one meeting for me before I sold it in perfect working order. The recipient soldered it into his car though and tried to use it only to find it faulty.... :eh?:

As a result I had to give a refund even though it was sold in working order, I can't be sure how or when it went wrong between me selling it and the purchaser installing it so I had to take it back in good faith.

Since then it has just sat in my house for the last 6 months, I can't bring myself to chuck it out but have no use for a faulty ESC either!

So if someone is able to repair them then that would be happy days!! :D

I recently sent an old Ko Propo CX-111 to a very knowledgable guy in Sydney. He sent it back repaired for under $80. I was stoked!

Considering Derek Bailey was repairing ESCs even in the early days, being an old ESC should be no problem to him as long as parts are available.

I think Derek B is the chap top models use. Wasn't sure he was still in the business. Nice one Terry ;-)
