      I wasn't driving, my track car is broken. Was in my mates track prep'd MR2 Turbo. Fully caged with coil overs and semi slicks, putting out about 350bhp. Clocked 165 on the straight behind a Ferrari 360. lol, Fun times.

  7. May have just fully discharged a Lipo in the Slash :'(

      green light = low voltage cut off enabled.

      quickly charge it back up to get out of the danger zone, it might be ok still

      It wasn't running properly and I got fed up trying to sort out. turned out my glow starter was knackered and I had consequently totally muffed the carb settings up trying to get it running sweet. So yeah it was a bit pricey but at least its actually running now and I an just enjoy it tomorrow :)

      I did it once to see what it should run like when it turned right and the engine cooked itself an hr after leaving the shop

      awww gutted m8! what power soldering iron are you using? Maybe try and get the wire you want to solder up to temperature before you show it the deans connector, as the wire will sink a hell of a lot more heat than the deans itself

    3. Pingman

      Pingman

      Yea I did that, I left the soldering iron on it for ages, it got so hot in fact that it melted the heatshrink that was right down by the base of the battery! HATE. SOLDERING. :(

    4. Pingman

      Pingman

      oh, and its a good 30w Iron. I've just changed to a thicker tip and i'm going to try some different solder i've just found.

  20. think I might have too many RCs, time to thin out the crowd?
