    :D:D

    not taking any pics, just making sure i got everything done right.
    you have to get all the electronics setup before you finish the build or have to dig back into the chassis to adjust anything.

    these frikin' ESC and radios now days are too damn complicated!

    i used to plug everything in, adjust upper and lower limits, and DONE.
    now i gotta program the damn transmitter AND the ESC.....IF your receiver has been bound to the transmitter.


    aaarrrrggghhhh!!!

    acetone will make loc-tite brittle. after that you should be able to move the joint around to knock off the excess.
