    Diego you didn't miss anything. The boat had a real bad hop in the rear and it just didn't hook up. I brought it in and made some adjustments but forgot to tighten the coupler and it went nowhere fast. When I got it back it had taken on some water from somewhere and the esc wouldn't arm. So I will dry things out, fix the leak, and try again.

    BTW my Elite 2S-35C-5000mAh lipo's came today I need to get some 5.5 bullets on them and get em charged.

        I finally got the clear coats on and now it just needs a cut and buff.

                No, I wanted a new one as soon as I cracked the old one (before I even finished the thing)

                  I can certainly try. The receiver seems to be working now, but can't be sure until I do some range checks.

                  Egneg,

                  Glad to see you got the Xzess on the water. I hope the issues resolve for you soon.

                    I'd love to make a run today and benchmark the CF micro hydro, but it doesn't look like the weather is cooperating. If it clears up a little, I'm planning on going out.

                      Running in bad weather? I thought Dirty & I were the only ones crazy enough to do that
                      I do miss him though

                        Yeah, it makes me a little nervous when it is one of my nicer boats, LOL!

                        I am planning on running her today. I expect the wind to die down a little later. Besides, I figure, no fool, no fun!

                        Receiver is working now, but don't know how it will hold up. Seems to be intermittent one out of ten tries, but of course that could be the Tesla coil in my boat room/studio.

                          Speaking of Dirty, I wish I could talk to him again. I just turned my Phone into a brick.

                            Try using it upside down Sorry to hear that.

                            I wish he'd come out to the pond sometime. I think all of us would hand over a boat or two for him to run. As I understand, he's the only real driver out of any of us, LOL!

                                All I know is, he got Jeff's Vegas trimmed out really well. Experience shows.
