Thats cool. I am sure once you are able to run it the way it was meant to...you will like it. Great deal for the price.


here's a good deal for a pro-pulse battery. $10, and if you do regular postal service for delivery to Mass....$4.60 (over $11 for ups). total of $14.60....not bad. I've got that 1 hour DC quick chargers new, I'd sell for $15 (also great deal)...that'd get you battery and fast charger for a little under $30

Must have missed your post or somethin? weird...well I did get the battery pack in with the charger and dean plugs and fabbed a wing and new front bumber here are some pics.


Needs to be painted flat black




Will get a vid or two once I solder it and run it tomorrow when the rain stops!
Had to spend the money on the good stuff!

Cut 1 wire and there was a HUGE spark but gonna see if it works after I charge it, hopefully it works.

You must have shorted it out....when you cut the one, did the knife touch the other one at all ? not good. but if it was only for a split second might be ok. Let us know how it makes out !

Well it did work but my mom grabbed the transmitter hit the gas and drove it into the wall and popped a dogbone out but I got it fixed so I know it works now lol, she can't say it isnt a toy now but gonna try it out tomorrow and see what shes got.

So, how'd it go ?

musclecar201

Well it runs like a beauty!! Very fast but I really need to tune my setup because it is definitely not my driving style lol. I took out my speed checker and it was about 27 mph, which I think is really good but gonna save up some $$$ so I can make this thing bullet proof. Very good battery pack though. Charger is about 1 and a half give or take. Very happy with this though, does great drifting on loose dirt and runs fast on packed dirt I have made a video of it, very short and not the best quality because I am a singly man camera crew! I would say one of my favorite r/c's! Only broke part of my wing and the antenna tube, no biggy.

What do you use as a speed checker ?? 27 sounds a little higher then most for stock...

Glad you seem to enjoy it. $50 for the refurb is a pretty darn good deal.(a friend and I have gotten 3 that way) Crappy 5-10 mph toy r/c's can cost that.

It does seem easy to break antenna tubes...but a friend with the Vendetta experiences that too. Guess its good to have a couple spares. they're cheap enough.

Couldnt get your video to work

I used a hot wheels thing that my neighbor has but I am sure its not to acurrate probably, 25 give or take. Will fix the video don't know why its not working I'll just put the link up, weird.,,,
