dang hidden water in the ditches - 12.21.2007, 08:41 PM

i was running my emaxx for the first time with good tires (road rages maxx size) that i bought today. its amazing how going from cheap $20 ebay tires to quality ones can change your truck. i was having a blast. anyways i ended up going off the road just a little and i seen a small splash. it didn't even go up much higher than the bumper. i calmly backed out to the street and ran it back towards me. on the way back right infront of me i got a small glitch, then a small stream of smoke. panic then set in. my bk9920 may be done. there wasn't hardly any water on the truck at all, but something must have made its way to the esc. i let i dry for a while, and tried it again, but i again got a little smoke. reverse worked perfect, and forward glitches and causes more smoke. i letting it rest over night and trying it again tomorrow. i have only gotten one run out of it since i got to where it should have been reliable, and a real nitro killer. whats worse, is that i've been working rediculas overtime and all that extra dough is going towards christmas for others. i may have to tell the wife i want a mgm esc, but she thinks rc is a waste so i'll have a hard time pulling that one off.
