[Peter Vogel]

There was a recall notice from Castle months ago with a simple fix for a mfg defect in the first run of ice2 hv160's that cause the fire.

Any one have any idea what's going on with Castle, I have heard of these catching fire, but thought the folks that were using either didn't solder the joints properly or were pulling too many amps.  My Set up is a hacker Q80 M 7, pulling 120 Amps wide open throttle.  Plane can be repaired but was looking forward to performing my freestyle routine for our Labor day air show; not anymore.....
