See you all, i'm going to Idaho to get a hardtop for our jeep. Then were going to come back through oregon and down from northern cali and go fishing and maybe a little offroading if we can find some good trails. If i take any pics, i will post em up when i get back.

Buy a ParkBEC that runs between your main pack and your Rx. There are a bunch of different ones out there. I hate to say it, but I think its your robot servo's. They are just too cool for school.

| As if brushless has anything to do with driving... Having had more than my fair share of brushless systems over the years, I think crawlers are the last R/C to really benefit from them. Sure they have power, but at what cost?

Now if you want real power using a brushless system. Go 3s Lipo and gear down to the speed you need. My old-old Clod from about 5 years ago had two Lehner sensored brushless motors in it. I could haul around 50 pounds of dead weight (once the tires hooked up) on 12v. I wish I still had that rig, would have made an unstoppable crawler. Stainless steel inner gears, ceramic bearings... My clod puller was damn fun. At a truck pull event (full size) we hooked about 15 of our pullers to a 4x4 Tacoma and pulled it through the event. Was pretty cool. | |

| You'll like this new location. It's a challenge to say the least. 10 days till the Moonrocks/Reno comp and only 17 days till our gtg. Here's a link to the video threads (again) to get you all psyched! Scouting trip: 1tom2go Raw gtg of early May: Sac Area Crawlers.... Get Together... May 2007 |

Whats the date for the next Reno Comp? FlexnTLT, Like the new look. Just trim down that servo horn, doesn't look much like a radiator fan that low and on the axle. |
