A trail truck isn't bad speed wise, especially in tight places. And you say this like its a bad thing. 🤔🫡

Jumps higher then a slash 🤪
 
I took my Outcast out for a short little test drive with the new AVC receiver i bought for it to replace the one that died last week. After reversing the steering on it and straightening out the toe links it runs almost perfect now.

Is it possible to turn it around?
I guess I should ask why it sucked first lol
I've used the newest EZRun G2/G3 combos in other platforms... but I had more room to work with. The waterproof plugs that are on the ESC/motor sensor cables is quite large.

Also, a person can't just choose what length of cable they need. It's a one size fits all. I wanted to tuck it in beside the motor & ESC, but there is too much material, and the bends were not lining up for me.

Well, a 180 it shall be. 😁

Initially, the zip tie was temporary as I had planned on shortening the motor wires... I didn't say how I'd do it.

@RustyUs .. Why don't you shorten the motor wires.?
My OCD wouldn't let me live like that 😂 I understand you can't shorten the sensor wire though..

You guys are such pushers. Thanks for the wire shaming!
Minus four and a half inches of that 12AWG stuff....
