So I bought a FrSky radio. An X-lite S. I really miss having the OpenTX software on my old radio and it's a smaller, more compact size. It will be fun setting it up.
I've been lazy, haven't really done anything to the excavator. It's still cold here in Montana, so I haven't done any painting either.
I did order longer bolts to replace the included 4mm long ones that attach the tracks to the center piece. My reasoning is that with the extra length I can use nuts and not risk stripping the threaded holes. Or i can even cut a piece of aluminum and then that will distribute the clamping force over a bigger area.
I've even debated using JB Weld to epoxy it together. I can still feed the motor wires to the slipring. Who knows, I'll see what happens.
