I'm back!

Hey guys! I have been away for a while, sorry I was a bit busy.
An update!! I have received my hobbyking 6 channel rc transmitter. This was great! The build quality is great for its price. Unfortunately I couldn't test it out before the accident.
one day i took out my receiver and an unassembled power system to show my cousins. When i turned around to get my transmitter one of cousins, who was 8 years old, decided that it would be a good idea to assemble the power system. But unfortunately it went horribly wrong. The JST connector was pushed into two of the pins on the ground rail. This created a short circuit and a lot of current began flowing through the pins. This made it extremely hot and by the time i managed to pull the battery connector off, the two reciever pins had melted and were infused inside the plastic connector housing. Oh well, it still works though!
