So I sell these tinyESCs. I have run out and will be doing a redesign, but I have about 60 here that don't work. I think almost all can be made to work by replacing or even just re-soldering the h-bridge chip.

Problem is, it's a QFN16 which has the tiny little pads under the chip, so it requires solder paste and a hot air rework station (I have these things) and patience (I ran out of this). Sometimes I've had to re-solder the chip a few times before it's lined up right.

If someone wants to do the work, I can pay $10 for each repaired esc and supply with the ICs, rework station and solder paste. Any takers?

sure, I'd give it a shot if you'd like.

Bergo want/need help let me know. I have been thinking about getting a hot air rework station and would be interested in working with one before I buy.

I'll bring everything to the space Sunday.
Here is a good video on hot air reworking. He doesn't even use solder paste.
