      Sorry. :rolleyes:
      I went out again today, and I took a shot at running her while trying to take video. I'll post the fiasco in a minute.

                And I thought it had something to do with the SV motor @ 1800Kv and the Ammo @ 2300Kv.

                and his 3800Mah batteries to my 1800Mah batteries.

                well...yeah that too i guess:rolleyes: :D

                  Well thanks Saleens7 for the advice. I am going to do something about it anyway. SJFE made a suggestion to me about "Wetted Surfaces" and I'm going to improve it if I can.

                    One question.
                    Every time I run her, the motor is "cool" the ESC is "cool", but the batteries are "HOT" any reason for this? Is it because the packs suck? (batteries plus special).

                    Thanks

                      the batts you have probably arent rated for the # of amps the motor pulls from it...

                          Would have posted the video, but the passes were running away from the camera, then toward the camera. It didn't look much different than the first video. I'll have Dirty video it again from the side to have the pass go right to left next time.
