I'd just like to post that NUMBER FIVE IS ALIVE!!!!
It's true.
I'm not kidding.
Number five is running with the red wire pulled from the esc receiver lead and using a CC BEC to power the receiver and servos. A pack later and it is still going strong. This is far longer then the first 4 that this truck killed. I can't wait to clean up the install a bit now and flog it like it was meant to be.
