I got to run one pack through the buggy a few minutes ago. I'm still working on the solution to hold the batteries in, but I'm hoping I may have something worked out in the next couple days.

I did work with the brake exp. on my M8 and was able to dial in a good amount of brakes. It still doesn't have "super-brakes", but it's more than adequate for stopping the buggy quick. I'll be trying out between 75% and 100% at my local track (which we're building now) to see where to sweet spot is.

My wife was sitting with me when I ran the pack in the car and one of her first comments was "we need a bigger yard, don't we?". :)
I love my wife :)

Thanks for the idea on checking the brake exp., Mike. I did try good batteries, but they didn't seem to make any difference.

Electronics run on smoke... if you let the smoke out, they stop working.
