Default UK Land Rover in the Stream

A few minutes of part of a canny stream bed run I did yesterday.

I had run it then went back to video it (forgot the tripod ) only for the truck to die, or so I thought. Completely forgot about changing the RX pack until I got home.

Got to love balloons

Enjoy

Opened the servo and packed it with Lithium grease. Closed it back up and then gave it a few coats of plastic bumper paint.

The balloons didn't work as well as I hoped for. The truck has actually given up. Stripped the balloons down and the ESC and RX were a tad damp. Will fill the neck of the balloons with grease next time.

I agree with Unimoger, definitely a nice crawl spot.

Thanks Unimoger & Mulchman .

That chassis I got off you (unimoger) is performing quite well, unlike the driver

No complaints from me. The only thing I'm going to change soon are the screws to fit some stainless ones.
