Vehicle : 2016 E Maxx, brushless castle creations power, 2X3S lipo batteries.
Driver : US Marine, honourable discharge, wounded/disabled.
Me : Just a buddy trying to allow his friend to enjoy RC hobby.
So I picked up my friend's emaxx, turned it on, no indication of power, started unscrewing the receiver box, and all of a sudden, the ESC smoked and burst into flames.
Working on warranty service with Traxxas right now for batteries and if they want to offer any other service.
My question is, do you have a safe recommendation for motor/esc combo that is least likely to explode? He knows nothing about repair and diagnosis.
Thanx.
