Sorry guys, been installing all new electronics (Tekin ROC 412) and it's back up and running just as fast (if not faster) then the cars going down my street. I have a LOT to update and will be answering the questions that I can in a bit.

Since this is so fast it needs some spot lights and not just floods. This pair of lights are really that bright, it's insane. The fence is roughly 30' away. |

Finally, pics with a HPI Mini Trophy body. You can see it's a little to large, both long and wide (in the cab). My OMG was because even though the MT body is a little big for the Twin Hammers it got me excited thinking about when someone comes out with a proper fitting trophy truck body for this, it's going to be SICK! |

So I had to edit the below photo to add the "do not enter" signs because it turns out that the Twin Hammers is not part boat. After that outing I sprayed simple green on the rig and hosed it off to clean it up. After I dried it off I sprayed silicone lube on the metal parts so they don't rust (or rust as bad). I went to run it again this weekend to get some video of it and it did not turn on. The ESC, receiver and shifting servo are no longer working, no lights come on, no noise, the other thing working in the stock electronics is the steering servo. Even though I read the manual where it said "while the entire vehicle is highly water-resistant, it is not completely waterproof and your vehicle should NOT be treated like a submarine", I knew I was risking damaging something when I submerged my rig as much as I did. So take this as your lesson learned if you don't want to rush out and upgrade your electronics, be reasonable with how deep of water you run in. |
