Hey LB Tre does this, he makes pit products for us owensboro/indiana/Illinios racers.
He can make you something if you drop him an e-mail. www.tnt-fx.com
Got a pit board coming I'll post pics when he ships it to my house, or at the winterblast.[8D]

RE: THE LOUNGE 2
i finally got around to replacing that busted servo case top. while i was at it i pulled the gears out to clean and relube them, and also removed the motor and board to check that out. what i discovered was most horrifying. [X(] obviously i didn't seal the case nearly as well as i thought.
anyone care to run this servo in one of your flyers?

Just got back from a little shopping. I wanted to get a set of digital calipers for adjusting tie-rods --- Finally found a good deal on them.
Very inexpensive set: 150mm, great accuracy.

If it still works, use it mechnized death.

i've heard that some people don't seal their servos, but when i opened one of mine, a bunch of muddy water poured out of the gearbox.
lol!

Purists would have me reading the ol'e scale, but I can't say that I care about the actual measurement... I'm using it to compare two lengths.
In that case, it's easier to set and forget with the digi

Picked up a T-Rex 450 V1 at the dome last night. All carbon fiber with a Microheli tail set and blade grips, worth $150 by itself!. Nabbed the whole airframe for $100! Came with a bunch of extra parts too.

Hard to believe that there's enough gap on the servo case to get in that much water!! [X(]
ORIGINAL: mechanizeddeath
actually it does, there's nothing wrong with it besides cosmetics, and once i replace the case it will look brand new, aside from some scuffing on the wires from the skidplate.

You can't beat that price...
Global economy at work!!

I got one of those too. So far mine has worked out quite well, I use it for setting up my helis. Such a good price I got one for my father in law and Turbo. Can't beat $19 for digi calipers!!!
