How on earth did you keep the snow off of your esc? I've run trucks in snow with brushed motors and all (lots of balloons and foil over the esc), but I'd be real scared to do what you did. The times I did it the trucks came in packed with snow!

cadima, keeping the snow off the ESC came through the gracings of a Wal-Mart bag and a little duct tape. Basically I have found that wrapping just the chassis with a modified Wal-Mart bag (now that's a mod Mike should sell!) solves the ESC problem, it's just the front tires you gotta worry about, and they send most of their crap up and under, so wrap from the bottom up, tying it inside the body, but nothing is foolproof.

And neweuser, yes, it is one in the same....it now lays, dismantled, at my work station in a puddle of tears. But as any true r/c'er knows, if you don't break something expensive every now and again, you mustn't be running quite hard enough. Words to live by.
