Default Stock ESC died, where to contact for repair?

So my stock vanguard esc went up in smoke this morning. I would like to have it repaired since it works well for my application ( in my bomber ;) ) Where would I contact for a repair? I was looking at the castle esc repair list and it isn't listed there.

I know they aren't top of the line units but it lasted a year in my yeti and works well in my bomber.

My yeti now has an rx8 and pro4 but I don't run it in any moisture (or minimal any way) and it's built for jumping/speed not crawling. When I bought my bomber I had the idea that the stock yeti esc/motor would go in the bomber. It works great in there since I use the truck for U4/trail running and not for crawling.

Any ideas on whom to contact?

Also, I know it could be replaced pretty cheap but if I can get it fixed for 20-30$ I figure it's worth it.

contact Axial. If you cant get it repaired due to the age of the esc, I would look on ebay or even buy a new one if you like it that much.

Funny thing is I didn't have an issue until I did the castle firmware update. I'll end up tossing it if it takes too much effort. If it was just a matter of putting it in an envelope and sending an email it'd be worth it but it's looking like a pain...

Can you elaborate about the firmware update causing issues? I just put a new Yeti ESC into my Bomber and did the firmware update on Friday.
