I may get this one too.
Think you made the wrong decision by buying the chinese, they do have inferior components as you said: the electrolytic capacitors will heat up and die soon, open sided connectors, etc..
I think there's something wrong with the motor supply configuration: the diode will prevent the motor back EMF to be dumped in the power supply.
Then there's the undocumented switch, I have a gutt feeling that it might be important by looking at the photo's.
Just a guess but if in the wrong position: Magic smoke.
