Post by Frankentruck »

Does anyone know if this extra case hole is supposed to be there?

Is that an adjustable pod?

I'm not sure, but apparently it's more than just a one off.

It's an added current limiter if I had to guess.

I don't recall that ever being a feature when this ESC was made.

I believe that is a current limiter. I can't prove it but I have seen that before.

A "feature" it was not. But it could have been added to X amount of them to test prior to the M1c.

This really isn't the correct site to show off your case hole. :oops:

The seller tells me these are team speedos from back in the day. Ok, that's got my curiosity peaked. I think I need a closer inspection. 😁
