MacCool, I have proven that not only is it possible, but other manufacturers possibly even DJI are already doing it on some of their other machines. Now it may be that the ESC's on the Phantom are not suitable, or it may be purely a cost cutting exercise in not fitting protection. Until we hear from a recognised source all we can do is discuss this. You should keep an open mined, you seem very unwilling to even consider the possibility bordering on being obtuse about it. This is a shame because there are some who would like to discuss it further.
tonyphantom :- You could always take a measurement of the temperature of the mosfet while the phantom is running, see what temperatures are there, if it runs cool, then provided the motors are not stalled it might very well work. As the ESC is covered over with the plastic shell of the phantom, little air movement will be flowing over the ESC's so passive cooling maynot be relied upon. There are lots of options, even fitting little heat sinks on the mosfet might be an option.
Best yo try it all on an old second Phantom though eh! - just in case !!!
