Hi Mike, It was good talking to you at the RCX show in Long Beach and thank you for taking the time to show me your VP Jeep. The detail and work you put into it is phenomenal and impressive. |

Isn't your waterproofing efforts negated with the telemetry sensor installation? Also the foam in the traxxas rx boxes is generally designed for servo sized wires, how is the waterproofing with the esc wires? Thanks for taking the time to post your build. B |

I have yet to have a problem with the telemetry being wet (my Honcho is setup exactly the same and it has been in several bath dumps and it's still ticking like the day it is new) plus they are just sensors that aren't required to keep the vehicle running which is the main concern when water proofing this rig. As for the boxes for the traxxas you are correct that they are designed for rx wires which are around 22 guage or 24 guage but remember the boxes includes grease which is used to fill in the gaps where the foams fail to seal. Also with all of the heavy guage wires of the battery and motor, there's barely if not any room for liquid to pass through because they are all squished into there. Hopefully this makes sense. | ||||

Thanks for explaining the TRX rx boxes. I might have to borrow that idea. It keeps the build über clean. Excellent work so far!

Got to say I bought the Traxxas Box and love the idea but got hit by wanting to have enclosed wheel wells and the box angle nixes the front well. Have not given up on it yet as all If I can use this I can water proof everything but the 55T Brushed Tekin motor. I built a special plate cor my CMS and working on my Panhard, I have the ablility to mount the box on the plate I think next my servo and a different angle, but that will force batteries in the back and I was shooting for battery up front. I got to get my built thread going on this but it's nothing like your well until I get to the interior. But again great build and a lot of idea's I think folks got off of it. |

running total as of right now is $3775 check the next post on the Parts/Price list. A bit more than that. When I do rc all I do is think about how much more money it cost me when I used to build drift cars. | |
