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

[WickedFog]

I can't buy anything in the next few days because I am going camping Sunday afternoon and I don't want it sitting on the porch with nobody home.

Just ship it to me. I'll watch it while you're gone

 

[Hammer Down]

More, more and more.. helicopter parts.
Aside from all the crashing… my skills are much improved. I can hover in all orientations and fly around pretty decent now.

Not me just thought it was funny.

Just placed my first pre -order ever! Had to make sure I got one of the first Losi Mini-JRx2's around.. Going to bust out the tiller and get a track cut in before it arrives..

Checking this out at LHS over weekend. Heads up it's small. Really small. But should be a blast to drive. Especially if you upgrade motor and make it fast as it will go...

Breydon is gonna love it. I also got a cool package in the mail from @STONER RC that will be part of Breydon's b-day present. I made him up a logo and JT had a couple banners made. So cool.

Oh yeah buddy can't wait to see that bad boy rip.. how's the bullfrog doing. Just got the xlx2 for my X. Going with the 1100kv.

 

[Tunedfrog]

Good to see you bro, the bullfrog is doing great. I wanted to take it out today but it rained so much yesterday, I'm starting to feel like a bullfrog.
Sweet combo, I hope it works out for you.

Welcome to the site.

I bought some nitro sport spare chassis, an strc motor mount in blue for my nitro slash, and some things I'm forgetting.

[Tunedfrog]

I bought a rear chassis plate for the Baja 5b build but orange was the only one I could find. I'll break out a can of oven cleaner and de-anodize it and polish the aluminum.

So I learned a new trick for changing color of aluminum. Fund some "etching primer". It works great for aluminum. Bonds fantastic. What I used for the Kra8 when changing the motor mount color to blue. Will post pic when I get home.. works great

Yeah man it's awesome. I got it from harbor freight. No sanding or anything just needs to be clean part. I wiped with alcohol wipes. Then sprayed.. came out awesome

I originally was going to get the FMS CHEYENNE 6x6 when I saw post by @Doom! After some pondering I liked the looks of the Atlas 6x6 a little better so I went with the red one. Not sure if it was supposed to come with 2 batteries, package & web description only list 1 battery There was one in truck, then another one under truck, lucky me I guess

You got an extra battery, mine only came with one. You suck! Atlas is a cool rig, noisy but good performer.
