what kind of runtime could I expect with "average" driving? rough guess
 
I get between 30-45 with the Gens I'm running. I do alot of wheel speed stuff too. Shipping is free on them too so it makes it easier to pickup an extra or two...
 
I ordered two of them, and I'm a cheapo so I found a discount code online "hobbymodel" 5% off.
 
So far having it pretty much done and waiting on replacement batteries for a couple days is worse than waiting on parts for years...lol odd how perspective can distort.......
 
Think I'm going to order an airbrush and do the body up right, i could prob do decent with rattle cans but........... (Thinking Iwata Kustom CS)

The wait for these batteries is making my glad I dont have much hair anymore, id be pulling it out otherwise...lol
 
Got my batteries, now to charge them, mount them,trim the body and make mounts, and then figure out what\how to paint the body
 
Its done now, now the fun part, tuning it and making changes. Going to try to get the battery mounted up front, which will require a steering change. I'm probably the only person who still has the stock berg spindles....lol

I run mine toed out and lots of caster.

The pointing in the different directions issue was rather severe, the delrin steering link was flexing under the power of the jr8711 and it was like one wheel straight the other fully turned lol

Mine is set up toed out, positive or negative caster? would assume neg
