Sorry Laura, tried to get a shot of you as you were coming down, seems just as I took the shot you started to tumble...

It was fun. Love the last one of your jeep. Apparently I broke my front 3 link.

You going to change into 4 link now or rebuild the 3 link?

I'm not sure yet. I might just rebuild the 3 link. I need to tear down the truck and check all the bearings and stuff any way.

Looks like I need to waterproof my ESC on/off switch better. Seems it got wet and did not turn off when moved to the off position. Got everything tore down and cleaned up. Ready for reassembly and further/better water proofing.

I have found that it is 10x easier for me "personally" to just cut it off and tie the 2 wire ends together to complete the circuit. Therefore it is always on and you will never forget to unplug your battery (much more safe when running lipo's especially). If you have some liquid electrical just dunk it in there and problem solved!

Great idea! Looks like I'll be bypassing the on/off switch

I worked on the Orange Dingo last night and the steering servo just went bad, there was no water at all inside.

Replacement on order. Until next time!
