    Miss Geico V3

    This is my daughters MG V3, I'm trying to reduce the fleet so this one goes and she gets a cheetah (deprived kid). This has about a dozen cycles on it, I've upgraded the strut and flex shaft to 3/16 and installed a SSS 3674 2075kv motor. It comes with a set of working Zippy 2s 5000mah batteries that I picked up used from here. You'll need rx, tx & prop. It has only ran on 4s with a 440/3 prop, besides its maiden voyage on 3s. The stock dynamite 120A esc remains.
    Disclaimer: ever since I installed the upgraded strut & shaft, water has been getting inside the hull, I found a small 3/8 crack on the bottom of outboard port sponson. I laid fiberglass on the inside, sealed the crack with capt. tolleys creeping crack cure, and put a dab of epoxy over the outside (see pic). That was not where the water is coming in at, I've been covering the receiver and letting her rock.
    I just bought a new house and will be moving after renovations are complete, no time to play much or tinker until next spring, I must clean up.

    $315 as shown, shipped free with insurance, east of Mississippi, west side add $10. No sales outside US, PayPal only.

    $215 and I'll remove motor, esc & batteries, all stated above remains the same.

      Upon looking at it closer, it might be the original dynamite 120A esc since the plating is blue. . .but I could be wrong.

            I'm interested but did you ever discover where the leak is coming from and how much water are you getting inside? If you haven't figured out or don't have the time to find where the leak is I'll make an offer of $150 hull/hardware. . .no motor, esc or batteries.

              I didn't but haven't done much investigation either. This past weekend was the first time we ran it since I posted about it a month or more ago. After a run it'll have maybe 3-4 oz in it. I covered the receiver with hatch tape and ran 3 packs through it on Sunday. I'm thinking it's something with the strut or stuffing tube, the problem didn't exist until I installed that stuff.

                  Sorry Scott, the best I can do is $150. . .I'm not even sure I'm supposed to do this at this time after a dent in my pockets due to hurricane Irma. . .but if you can do $150 then I'll take it and I'll face the music later with the wife. .LOL. .but if you can do it then we have to discuss shipping, making sure it gets here on Tue, Wed or Thur. . .so I can intercept the package before the wife does. .LOLLet me know if you have a change of heart.

                    Thanks for the offer, Brian. I can't ship it out for that price, I'll prob snatch electrics out of it and pack it up this weekend if no one picks it up.
