Great work. I agree a motorpod teardown would be great. Also a wifi card separation...I see that there are people replacing the stock card with a higher power version... Might be a business opportunity :)
Looks like Solo and Controller are both options for WiFi upgrade. One side only seems to add 3X distance. Guessing both sides would add more since comms are two way :) Bioards are relatively inexpensive, and replacement is plug and play, but many in the target market would be squeemish about opening up the unit. :) Here is the info: i.mt.lv/routerboard/files/R11-140818123114.pdf
will do.
The ESCs are in the motor pods, so I will cover them in a separate video on motor pod teardown.
