A couple of weeks ago I bought this nitro Rustler as part of a deal for a boat i liked. I really don't have any desire to keep it but I just can't bring myself to sell it with all the issues it has so I decided to clean/fix it up first. Also figured I haven't done anything of interest here for a while so I am starting this thread to show the highlights of the project.
To start I stripped it down for cleaning and checking. The servo wires were all cut and spliced and the receiver had no housing,just an exposed board. I used my DX2.0 to test them and both servos are dead. I started the clean up and reassembly but need a couple of parts so the project has stalled until parts arrive.
Here are a couple of pics how it started out and of my progress. I'll update more soon.
