Title: Fix Your Bad Board
Post by: Double-J on July 26, 2017, 02:37:38 PM
A small batch of the TCB's were released by Hobby King.  They are currently (July 2017) working to correct the problem and refund customers who received the bad boards.  If you have received a bad board, you may be able to fix it by replacing the wrong parts.  I do not posses the knowledge or equipment to do this, so I am looking for a local electronics guru to do this for me.

The bad boards contain the wrong MOSFETs and NOT the specified IRLML2502.
Q1 through Q8 should be replaced with the Infineon IRLML2502.  The IRLML2502 can be ordered from the following locations:
