controller board for a Esky honey bee 2 CCPM helicopter, mines gone and
frazzled its self the main motor runs flat out as soon as the battery is
connected, if not its going on Ebay in bits as spares

There is one currently up for auction on E-Bay. (last I saw... no bids)

Note... you can piece together speed control and so forth with 2 ESC's, a separate gyro and separate RX. Costs a little more, but you might be suprised with higher performance.

As an example the GP C-10 ESC vs the CC Pixie 7... The Pixie costs a bit more... but just swapping to that using the same motor and battery and prop... I get 30% more thrust. (and MUCH longer run time) The quality of the speed controiller shows itself in the performance of the power system more than any other single part. Cheap motors just don't last.. cheap batteries have low capacity... cheap speed controllers rob power. (and the dual speed controllers in the ESky multi-function box are CHEAP)

I know you can get them there but I dont really want to pay £45 for one and
I was hoping someone might have wreaked the rest of the heli and I could buy
just that bit from them

I had a similar problem with the 4 in 1 on my Walkera after I accidently
shorted the power leads to the motor. Per several posts in the RCGroups
micro heli forum I found that the FET had gone bad. Once I knew where to
look it was obvious - the integrated circuit package had the top blown
off. A new part was $1.25 from digikey and I was able to replace it myself.

yes, an 8 pin dual inline package they call it
