I'm not a big fan of the castle link app. The pairing process is a bit finicky too.

New MEXB body and tires to complete my new 6s Mojave half EXB build. I say half EXB as its a stock chassis not an EXB chassis lol

I've only ever used the normal Castle link which I have no issues with. This is the first time I've pulled the trigger on the BT link. Ill be really disappointed if the BT link doesn't work at least as good as the regular link.

There was multiple times where it wouldn't say if it was ready for programming vs run mode. I actually had to clear the BT device twice for it pair properly. It kept failing the firmware update. I doubt it would be my phone (note 20 ultra) or anything else.

I'm getting to old and too fat to keep shoveling snow by hand. I aint playin' around this year!!! Of course you know that since I bought this its barely gonna snow this year. Hell we keep having 55-60F days and were in the middle of December.

I'm pretty sure if I aimed the chute just right it would launch an RC all the way across the pond to ya

Oh, you have no idea bro. I even decided to test print 3d labels for it, with actual size bolts protruding from them. Will be doing this for all my bolt drawers, with the actual bolts that is in the drawer.

When I went to the printer to see if it worked I almost shat myself with excitement.

I'm gonna change the font, and lower the layer height to .12. This was just a test at .2.
