Sounds perfect! I'm kinda getting used to the 10 to 14degC weather over here! Still on the hunt for kinder eggs, went to a specialty chocolate shop and they looked at me like I'm crazy. I will have one of the locals point me in the right direction. See you guys soon, looking forward to coming home.

I don't mind that temp! But I'm sure the wind will not be too pleasant...

I thought I heard somewhere that importing kinder eggs into the states was illegal? Like if you got caught it was a gnar hefty fine... not sure. Be safe and have fun over there!

I think you can bring a few on for personal...but check first.

I'm bringing a couple flyers to Don's tonight. Apparently, Dustin didn't know anything about it.

Docwolf · 04-30-2013, 02:43 PM

Lol, I never even thought about flyers this year, thanks man.

I can't wait wish I could figure out what's wrong with my 2.2 rig but the 1.9 is ready

ElBandito · 05-01-2013, 09:33 PM

My rigs are ready except the wraith. I'm having a few electronics issues with it right now.

It was 82 degrees when I landed in Chicago, and yet we still have this crappy weather down here? WTF! Hope it burns off before the 5th!

It's 4am, but my body thinks its noon. Jet lag sux.

Docwolf · 05-02-2013, 06:28 AM

I got that brushless outcry if you want to use it Bryan.

Snow today, rain Saturday and cloudy on Sunday. We prepared to run wet! I am brushless, but screw it, lets get em dirty!

I have all new electronics with the exception of the motor. I am going to try a differant motor tonight and see if that makes a differance. It's almost like the motor is sending an weird signal back to the ESC and srewing things all up. When the ESC goes through start-up and chimes, each chime of the motor makes my steering servo and winch spaz out. It's the weirdest thing I have ever seen.

I have a new Castle SV3, Brand new Futaba rx, brand new BEC, and a 2 pos. winch controller for my servo winch. I am switching back to brushed on this rig to make it waterproof. I had the 3800 KV brushless motor in it last night. I think that motor needs to be gone through or sent to the round file.

Topekacrawls · 05-02-2013, 10:16 AM

What do you have the bec set to? It may need to have its juice turned up a little. I had a similar issue with the trail finder because it has a beefy servo. I turned up the BEC and it solved everything. Before I did that when I turned it on it would do a little dance all twitching out and was generally unresponsive.

G-FORCE · 05-02-2013, 06:29 PM

Don't overlook the servo as well. Similar symptoms on my 1.9 rig swapped out components one at a time to isolate issue and it was the steering servo board.

MacJamez · 05-03-2013, 10:12 AM

Hows the road up to the top lookin? I don't want to break my new exhaust off like last time I went up there.
