Interesting. did you happen to note the part number on the sticker?
I would be interested to see if it matches the P/N on my originals. (above)

V2.1 = NO beeps on startup, Fwd LEDs go red ONLY AFTER starting motors

Not a single person there has reported that they have the beeps. And they have all sort of ESCs, unmarked, v2.0, v2.1
That's why I said that was not a good indicator of what you have inside...

GSSP said:OK here is my V3, purchased November 24, 2014, 20+ cold weather flights, NO Version number, 2.0 ESCs, I gently lifted all wires off the MOSFETs and had some mild melting of every wire that laid flat on the MOSFETs:
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND EVERY V3 BE OPENED AND WIRES LIFTED OFF THE MOSFETs

Sure. Head on down to your R/C hobby shop and pick up some silicone fuel tubing. You can unsolder the wires from the ESC and slip the tubing over them, or you can slit it lengthwise with an X-acto and slip it over lengthwise. There are multiple sizes, pick whichever suits your installation. Would be superb insulation.
QuadCopper said:Is silicone fuel tubing the same thing as 'heat shrink'? I have some of that (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FI ...

No. Heat shrink isn't very heat resistant. In fact, heat shrink tubing is what coats the three lead out of the 2312 motor now. Silicone fuel tubing is cheap, and silicone is very heat resistant.

Tweezer said:Official Correspondence from DJI regarding the ESC issue. I just received the update to my ticket I opened on Jan 6 this morning.
I have obscured and changed personal information in the ticket.
TLDR - ESC's with no version number requires for you to send in your unit for repair.
