    Long time ago it was fun 'cause my pop did most of the work and me and my bro just had fun. My bro actually was sponsored for a while, I'd dropped out by then. Still have some stuff collecting dust somewhere.

    Glad to hear it man-I have been out of it for a while-matter of fact the last time i got my rC out i soldered a voltage reducing diode inline to run the speed control...That was before they made the harnesses..Any recommendations for newer electric road cars ....

    MEC I just got mine tonight!! Haven't flown it yet

    JHOTTROD: Depends on your budget and what you intend to do. i.e. Race or Bash. Fill me in and I'd be glad to reccomend something.
