Technically I bought it yesterday but picked it up this afternoon. Hoping to get some more bench time tonight

Today I went and picked these up for the Optic

The servo that's in there at max voltage draws 8 amps, I'm going to dial the voltage back a smidge so we'll have lots of head room.

The last few rigs I built I usually grab these:

But, it's out of stock and prior to noticing that I crossed shopped it with Castles offering:

So for a dollar more all I have to do is put heat shrink tubing on? Sold!

I guess they got tired of leaving that last little bit on the table. The family that owns the LHS said they should have developed that ages ago. I tend to agree.

I have a similar one of those Ecopower servo y harnesses in my E-Revo 1.0 Brushless Edition but it's made by Hackfab and it's been awesome. It was also only $5 bucks USD i haven't bought much of anything RC related this month. A couple pairs of iC5 connectors for my XO-1 and my E-Revo also some body clips and retainers for my Outcast 8S and my Vendetta.

2.2 foams at the LHS were slim pickings.
I ended up with these to try

I guess I'll find out if the added weight helps or is a hindrance.

Picked up this today for some retail therapy after the dentist. Been looking at RC screwz kits to replace the Phillip heads that come with it, anyone use any of there kits?

I like not having to worry about the foam breaking down or getting moldy.

Thats the part I like the most too. But I also punch holes in all my tires so what do I know
