You'd be suprized how cheaply good parts can be had if you get them 2nd hand from ebay- less than 1/2 price for a G2 chassis, and Ti skids crop up every so often for much less than new prices.
Anyway, my new BC6 lipo charger & balancer arrived today, but I made a slight boo-boo. I ordered the balancing board thing for the BC8 by mistake, so the damn plug thing wont fit into the balancing port on the charger which will only take upto a 6s lipo plug thingy. Not to worry that is forsale on ebay, and I ordered the correct item to replace it, only about £5 so no great loss.
I also have my LVC warning device, and have located a suitable buzzer/horn to add to it; would you believe the mini-speaker from a musical bottle opener works perfectly as a loud buzzer? Lovely-jubbly.
The lipos have been posted a couple days ago, so I should have them in fortnight or so. I just hope we have a nice dry summer for a change, it would be criminal not be able to go out and give this upgraded setup a proper run or 2 dozen....
