You should build up your F201 as it is quite different than the other direct drive!!

OKAY..I'm really mad, because I have to rebuild my 2 IB4200 SxS packs. One of my buddies (who know nothing about RC) picked them up and started to play with them. I didn't really pay attention until I heard a SNAP!... Anyway, he tried to bend one, and I don't know how he could be so stupid, so...

Plus, I can't get my Triton to charge for some reason. All my AA'a are dead for the Tx's the new gear for the savvy is already dissoving for no reason, and I can't find my Pirahna to charge batts...

So, anyway, I gotta go bust out the soldering iron...geez...

no work, no gym, so today is RC day! finally got round to rebuilding the Mi2 with new rear hub carriers and rear diff and changing the rotor on the

Novak 4.5 GTB

there is some minor parts missing from the rear hub carriers, so mission is not complete today..

btw, if anybody wants the old rotor (very slight bend in it) then PM me and i will mail it FOC, if you have the right equipment its any easy fix.

I spent the day changing out the last of my cars' RXs to FM Snyth and converted my batteries, ESCs and chargers to Dean's plugs....

Actually went better then I thought it would, Dean's were actually easy to solder....

Not a bad days work....

hey I just noticed there is another nick,
regards to the clod, most of the wiring, motors etc can take the water and as long as the other are water proofed, you just have to remember to dry it all properly so it doesn't corrode.

Have you seen my Highlift vid? All you have to do is waterproof the ESC and Rx. (Servos are usually alright) I drove underwater...
