Greggo, I think I have a spare iron you can use to get your truck going. I'll find it tonight and drop it by tomorrow after work.

I actually have a spare tip for my Weller. I'll let you buy it from me if you need one. I ordered 2 the last time.

Finally got my ROC412 in for the Wraith. It's back to being an animal again. I also got the BHR LT4. I'm still on the fence on that esc. I'm gonna have to try one of the other firmware for it.... not too happy with the one it came with. I ended up putting the MMP back in to get it to run smooth. Let me tell you that ROC412 is smooth as butter with the MMP. I would say at least 10% more wheel speed than the Redline 13.5 had. Great drag brake as well. Truly the best of both worlds between brushed and brushless.

The LT4 will be going in the Twin Hammers once I get her all cleaned up. She's a mess from the last outing.

The stock firmware is terrible for crawling. I don't remember the number, but use the latest firm, it gives you all the options and the most configurations.

Thanks, I will give it a shot. That ESC is going in the TH.

I think you will get some use out of the timing control in the TH, I set mine to come in at 3000RPM and no delay. the idea behind it is to give you a little extra punch towards the top end, but on this crawler master motor there really is no advantage.

Cheeck this website out. I use the ST3. If you are ordering one, just come and get mine, then you can replace it with the new one when it comes in. That's assuming you are using this iron.

Guys I realized I'm 400 miles overdue for an oil change. It may be best if I give the 1:1 a weekend off.

400 is not bad, but you do drive the hell out of that car. LOL

I really hate to do this, cause I said I'd be there and caused a big stink about getting my rig running, but I've gotta back out. I consumed a bit too much alcohol last night, and woke up with the gnarliest hangover I've had in a long time... I still wanna crawl, but not till Tomorrow. I just don't wanna be up there and be a miserable, vomiting, pain in the ass...
