Ok... so I got the electrics installed now... this was not a simple task considering the size of these little cars... it's a good thing the LRP Sphere TC Spec has got such a small footprint...
it was small enough to allow a little space for the receiver to mounted next to it... The motor, power and sensor wires had to be strapped to the upper deck since the battery will be mounted
horizontally between the esc and motor...
I plugged everything up and programmed the esc's neutral, forward and brake positions (this esc does not have reverse)... It works... the fan is a little loud though for its size (it spins up really fast)...
all programming is done on the esc with the mode and set buttons... all mode features are confirmed with LEDs.
I'm still waiting on new spurs and pinions... so I didn't get to run a full test with the electrics and mechanics... see the pics below for the current layout..

LRP Sphere tc spec and the Mamba Monster to give an sense of scale.

Switch mounted inverted to allow for access under the body... all programming is done on the esc with the mode and set buttons

Not a whole lot of space for mounting electrics on this chassis... the deans will be replaced with 4mm bullets for the protek 2S packs
To be continued....
