Max6 G2 ESC, so what's up?

[RC-Steve]

This really isn't a Tekno thing but I thought I would share it anyways.
My new Hobbywing MAX6 G2 ESC has monster size capacitors. They are twice the size of any other MAX6 ESC I own. Is it a new update? Is it a manufacturing defect? I don't know, I've contacted Amain to find out. My Kraton has been lit on fire enough times already so I'm being cautious with this one.

My guess is a running change was done.

I would say its to help with not catching on fire. I have esc's that come with extra capacitor packs that you can plug straight into your receiver too.

Thank you for the link, I have submitted my question.

The final answer is it's a running change to the ESC.
