[NSRCA-discussion] JETI ESC

[Jay Marshall]

Usually that "stuff" between the ICs and the heat sink is a thermal compound
which helps the heat conduction. Usually there isn't a deliberate electrical
connection to the sinks but it may happen. Don't purposely short the sink to
something else.

If it looks like the Hacker Master/Master Spin units, there are screws under
the decal on front at each corner--peel up the corners or drive right
through them.  There is a little softer 'stuff' between the what look like
little ICs and the heat-sink--but just pulls apart OK.  If you burned one of
the (there's a technical term for them that isn't coming to mind) IC looking
things, I think they are (almost) impossible to replace.  I sent my Hacker
TO Hacker in Europe and they replaced (and up-graded) it for 35-40
bucks--after about the same in shipping.  I would imagine Jeti has a similar
plan--hopefully in the States--but keep looking as Hacker HERE(Yuma)
said--"Nope, you're screwed--it's junk"  AND I SAID " You GOTTA be shitting
me--on a 400 buck controller!!?""  That's when I contacted Hacker in
Germany--nice folks...  All news to Hacker in Yuma...
Good luck,
Richard

Does anyone have any technical knowledge of the JETI ESC? Particularly about
how the heatsink is attached and whether there is an electrical connection
to the heatsink?

 

Please contact me offlist at pcosky at comcast.net
