Even colder when you have to walk a quarter mile and stand outside just to have a smoke!

I got my shipment of batteries yesterday. A little soldering and I'm ready for spring.

You and the kid should be all set for a full day's worth of rc'ing

And here I am, trying to get my winter stuff done. I just finished cutting out the new Blizzard body and got the first coat of liquid mask on the windows. I kinda like this amber lightbar from my trick rc.com. The link doesn't work cuz c-k-r-c is blocked on this site.

The Safari lightbar isn't bad either, I watched the night crawl video

I got them off the slow boat from China, Hobby King. I think they are all Zippy's. I've never used these before so I can't really say if they are any good yet.
Paid around $38.35 a piece for the 5000mAh 40c 3s. You might be able to get them out of their USA warehouse. I had also bought some servos that they only carried in the Hong Kong warehouse and I didn't want to make two orders.

Have you checked Valuehobby out of IL?

I use their 3S/1300's in both 30C & 35C. Work fine for me.

Yeah but I'm not sure I have a Castle One cell esc so 6s is the limit but most likely a 3s I made an adapter last year to run 2 of my small 3s and it could have been a formula off road

Looking forward to this summer. I think there is gonna be some awesome crawling in some new places and making some new friends. Hoping to make it out to Dells of the Eau Claire, Chute Pond, Whitefish Dunes, Red Granite Quarry, Governor Dodge State Park, Lions Den, and Devils Lake and a few other places.
