Default Day in the snow, burnt out.

Took the wraith for a spin in the snow, driving around the trees up and down the hills, while my kids were playing on their sleds. Decided to see if I could get in bogged in the deeper snow. Ploughed through everything. Then just as my boy wanted a go it slowed right down, thinking it was the battery drove it up to us and there was the unmistakeable smell of something burntout. Will pull it down tonight or on the morrow. Seems like I`ll be updateing the power system before I thought I would. I guess it couldn`t cope with a be of extra wheel spin in the snow? Never mind, was good fun.

Thanks mate.
I was surprised by them myself. I took them with my new smart phone (cheapy).
That spot without the snow is all dune.

Looks like a lot of fun, I was playing with my wraith in the snow this last weekend. But the snow was to soft so it kept trenching. Great pics.

we had the perfect amount of snow to take the wraith out.
Was pretty cool. In the second pic. it started to get deeper, did a u turn there.

Turn it on lastnight, don`t know why but it appears to be running fine.
Took the motor out today, can still smell the smell of burning but its running as if nothing happened.
The ESC is fine, but dont think I`l put any trust in the motor. will replace ASAP.
