I FINALLY GOT MY FLUX!

it came with some unexpected extras as well. in addition to the stock TVPs that were promised, it came with a pair of FLM TVPs. the extra tires it came with a 1/2 offset jconcepts wheels and badlands. there was also an extra bulletproof ring and pinion included. within the first 5 minutes of driving, the drive gear gave out. within that 5 minutes, i decided i don't like how the stock tires handle with the extended TVPs, so i have spent the past 3 hours taking the truck apart and putting it back together with the FLM plates. i also took apart the transmission and cannibalized my old nitro tranny and used the gear from that. tomorrow, i should be able to get a little more runtime on it. i should also get a chance to run my 3s lipos

If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
