So I've got 10 hours left to drive tomorrow. I'm going to try and get all of my chores done tomorrow evening so I can make it Sunday. Can't let Hoopty take the C3 win that easily. Completely rebuilt the drivetrain on both my C2 and C3 this week while I was in Colorado. All new Boca bearings throughout.

What do you guys think about hitting up the cheap track near Zero's house next weekend? Leisure Hours Raceway has a race all weekend. I'd like to get the slash out for some laps!

Yea, the car show hookers have been known to get pretty crazy at this show. Too bad they are putting an end to it.

Planning too, not sure how competitive I can be as my knee is all fked up, but I want to run my trucks some.

Lets see, the Wraith is running, need to put the rebuilt motor in the Mog and reassemble it, need to put a new shift servo in the TF2. And if we are playing afterwards, I need to finish the Exo.

What the hell is the procedure for syncing up my TX to my new RX? 4pl/2104gf

It just blinks red, I cant get it to sync so, I can setup my mamba.

Edit: i held down the button on the RX and turned it all on but, it doesnt go green. I think everythings plugged in right.. Damnit.

Mms... I only plugged in the power, then turned on the transmitter, and pressed the button and it went red and then went to green a few later.

Shouldn't have an issue. I'd suggest gearing for 2S to about 30mph; the front straight isn't that long!

Thats what I usually do. But, this one is giving me problems.

I even took the RX out of a known working rig and put it in this one and same thing. Sucks.

Edit: I think I got it figured out.. Maybe something to do with low voltage on 4pl

Edit again: it's all functioning properly now, beeps, etc.. But it wont actually do anything. It doesnt power the motor. The lights light up correctly when I press the trigger but, it doesnt go anywhere. Wtf
