Great job Neil... looks like a whole lot fun.. what's the final weight on that big boy? Did you record the temps on the CC 1518 after the run?

Cautious driver Drive test I guess ! I hope

This MT is really beautiful, but is the ground clearance enough for your driving style ?

Fairly cautious for the first time out, wasnt sure if the prop-shafts ( aka emaxx drive shafts with a yolk at each end ) would hold out as they are stretched to the limit for length, and wasnt sure either if the cursed 3905 spec slipper would hold out either; glad to say they both worked fine.
I was gonna check temps, but when I touched my hand to the motor quickly I noticed it wasnt very warm at all- held onto it & it was barely 'luke warm' at most... ~100-110*F maybe? Lipo & esc were both cool =
Ground clearance is about 1.5" or so, not much at all, but I dont intend to do any kind of real crawling with this truck, just powering over stuff like lumps & bumps etc as seen in the video ( next time may take it down the woods where there are alot of gravel banks and stuff to scramble up, proper FOFF style ).
