Just got it all installed yesterday. Took to work because I'm have some problems with the on/off switch. Bumps and hard turns are making the switch turn off and usually right back on, sometimes it needs wiggled. But figured I'd mess with it in the parkinglot before coming home from work since I was the only one around.

Castle switches are garbage, cut it off and either install a new switch, or solder the wires together. As long as you don't crack the case ope, it doesn't void the warranty.
 
Ill probably get a waterproof one and solder on.I used 3m doublesided foam tape to secure the esc and it didn't hold to my surprise. Will provably retape and use a tiny long zip tie unless someone else has a suggestion. I'm new to all this electric stuff.
 
I usually just use servo tape to hold my ESC to the chassis and usually have no problems.
 
That was on brand new asphalt so when I tried at home on older far more course street asphault I was flipping and barrel rolling all over the damn place.
