The "What did you buy today?" thread...

[Tunedfrog]

I bought some medical supplies,
and a cheap brushless system for my Axial Bomber. I took the Tekin system out and am planning to use it in something else.
I'm not a fan of rock bouncers/racers so I want to put the Tekin system in something that will appreciate it.

Tried to buy tires for my Frontier, but the shop ordered the wrong size... supposed to get the correct ones this afternoon, so will try again in the morning.

 

[Tunedfrog]

I had to buy a ATV tire a couple days ago but they only had one in stock so I went ahead and bought it.
When I put it on it looks a bit taller on the new tire side because of the new tread. I called and ordered another one.
It will be here next Wednesday.

I got myself a e-revo 2.0. I've been having a blast with it on only 4s. Loads of upgrades and spare parts came with it. I finally found a great deal on one and snapped it up

 

[Tunedfrog]

You are going to love that rig @Kimmie28 , I built mine part by part and it is a fast mo fo.

I bought two packs of zip ties.

 

[Kimmie28]

You scored big on those zip ties @Tunedfrog

 

[Tunedfrog]

Can't beat a deal like this. Amazon $5.99 for 400 ties.

Couldn't resist this deal. Really want to do a brushless mini.

but, then, other people loved it...

Just put the bad one in the grass the new on concrete. Lean forward, full front brake and out the clutch hard and go up a gear or two.

I miss the kfx450 now.

Guess I'll find out. Gotta be better than some of the brushed setups. If I don't like it, it'll go to the grandkids. They never complain about my hand me downs.

 

[luke66]

That's the plan then!

A new top case for my Castle Monster X 8s and a M2C top case brace. Everyone tells me if I didn't run a tunnel ram for a fan I wouldn't have this problem. It's my happy zone so I deal with it.

Right or wrong, I ordered this today

Please let us know how that turns out. I am wondering if there wasn't a fix made for the low speed problems since the reviews started out terrible then suddenly went 5 stars.

Yeah, I can see where that big fan might cause trouble in crashes. That looks like a server fan or something. Those fins on the ESC aren't going to hold onto screws very well trying to keep all that weight from ripping them out.
