Well, ECTO-1 is heading to Roland Rockshop to have the lights done. Next time I see it, it'll have flashing lights and will proudly be wearing a Roland Rockshop sticker. Thanks Josh Harris

ECTO-1 took it's maiden voyage around the block. Didn't find any ghost, but we also didn't have any mechanical issues. I switched the shock back to a set of SCX10 shocks. They seem to carry the load much better. The RC4WD shocks were just to soft. That's okay, they can go to the Dingo build. I also need to replace the motor. This was in my junk pile. It gives off a hell of a light show when you pull the trigger. Oh well, it got me around the block and I can now say this build is FINISHED! On to the next.

Shitty video and some pictures coming later.
