Not yet boysSo, do tell Creepy, did your new rig come in yet? We need some pics!
I am hoping as it works it's way through the Greater LA Area it grabs a ticket for a plane and heads over here.
I won't lie, I have definitely been worried.

IT'S HERE
I haven't put a battery in it yet.
Swapped in my rx, removed the wheels and tires to clean them up (not that anything was dirty). I soaked the rubbers in SG for a bit, I wanted to unlock all the mechanical grip available. Plus I had a few other sets to do so it worked out. I then rotated them around.
Excited to get this out!

Awesome is a great word to use guys!Looks awesome! can't wait to hear how the next comp goes
You and me both RLB! I am assuming the next competition event will be towards the end of June. Which.. is just to far away!
I plan on sneaking out to the quarry at the first opportunity.
It went from bum bum weather to blazing hot over night so my phone has been popping with cooling customer calls..right when I received a new toy and I am trying to get ready for an event LOL
Update
I got everything sorted out today. I could smell something getting warm, didn't think much of it, then I touched the ESC/Motor housing
Decided I should put a temp sensor on here.
At rest it was 91f, the app shows ten f higher (board level - assumption). Light wheel speed on the bench brought that up to 100f.
It's probably 68f in my basement.
I am mildly concerned about the longevity of it.
