I'll probably be putting in the order for the 9L tomorrow during the day. Watch for an email on that, too.

I'll be putting an update on my 1/8th buggy thread, too.

I'm thinking about keeping the manual brakes on the MGT, so I have a question in regarding if I have the setup right in my head.
I assume I'll just program the MGM for forward-only operation and keep the throttle/brake servo plugged in with the ESC in a y-adapter. This way the motor will respond to the acceleration and not the brake, while the servo will move for both, but only be applicable for braking.
Is this right, or is there another "right" way to do it?
