Using the FP-S148 that came w/ my Stadium Blitzer.. I want a weak servo for the steering.. in this case, weaker is better.. ha! Actually, a better way for modulation is probably running a softer spring.. will work on that later, I guess..

Also right now, the brake setup is metal on metal.. not much modulation there.. probably need to use some kind of brake pad material to give it a better feel..

Here's my initial setup..

Had to move the ESC so it clears the brake actuator rods...

Running the LRP ESC as it is waterproof...

Put on the roll cage loop thing.. applied threadlock, good to go!

Status: online 		Calm down, guys... the RX is just lying there, not even taped to the chassis.. I am going to put it in the balloon, remember?! I am just testing things out, that's all...

Soldering the motor probably won't do much.. Silvercan.. LOL.. this thing is not going to pull much current.. it won't be the limiting factor... (and I am lazy.. ha!)
