Last night we melted down a PWM cable. It had backed out of the connector on the Victor it was attached to. Then the ground (Black) pin slipped into the lug on the +12 volts feeding the Victor. POOF!!! +12 volts to ground made a LOT of smoke!!!
We were so glad that we had not fried the RC nor anything else for that matter.

FIRST is here to inspire you, to challenge you. Part of that process is giving you a task too hard, resources too little, people too many, time too short. - ebarker [more]
