And a double amen to that, I find metric much easier Don't know why we continue to use the same ,(Standard), crapy system here. We for the most part have course threads on our Bolt's as well.
Speaking of ESC's, literally the first two minutes of run time on my 8x8 the drive ESC started on fire had to go buy another ESC from my local Hobby shop. Secondly, my dump ESC only ran in forward not reverse so I couldn't bring my box back down, so i had to get another ESC for that as well. RC4WD was very good about sending a replacement for the drive, still waiting on one for the dump. The excavator has been very impressive though, have had a lot of fun with it , guess we will see how reliable it is? Who knows may be I will start excavating my basement as Joe has. I have close to the same situation with my crawl space, as Joe, and have often thought about digging it out even before I heard Joes amazing story. Now that I know I can do it as part of my hobby, makes it much more desirable. The Big O's construction company must first be implemented.
Thank's again Joe for your great knowledge in this hobby.
