The brushless serpent 1/8th onroad project!

How about pouring some PEPSI on the rear wheels and check out how grippy it is going to be?

Just a thought, though.

No, sorry, I am not really big on taking pictures, plus I sent it back to Icare in Canada where I bought it, so they could see if it could be repaired. Two months later the word came back from Germany that it was unrepairable. It was the 18.149F and they offered me a discount on a replacement but they were only going to take $150 off, so I bought the Quark. I had cogging problems at 4S on the Mamba, but they changed from happening everytime, to sometimes, when I changed the timing to its highest settings, go figure. They completely went away when I dropped the software back down to the 1.07 version using the Castlelink. I make about 5 passes before I bring it in, because I don't like to let the heat build up. Let her cool down and go out for another session. The Castle hasn't even thermaled yet. I am patiently waiting for the Monster Max to come out, to better handle the load. Yes it has the 5mm plugs all the way around, and wet noodle everywhere else. No changes to the Mamba, even though I usually wet noodle the mains on that controller. I will try to get video today if the weather holds, if not, it will be the first dry day that comes.

By the way, check out where we run. This is a link to the Windows Live map thing. Be sure to hit the button to switch it to the birds eye view. This road is wide, smooth, has low interference and traffic, and best of all, is a 1/2 mile long.

I have just tried today my new ESC with electrical brake: Very nice :027: (The first ESC you see was a 110A for planes)
