Hahahaha! Nope not calling the wife that....Maybe wish that I was

I can't say anything too bad about her because she sat in the car for 3/4 hour today while I was at the hobby shop and I didn't even get slapped when I came back. She had the keys and didn't drive away with out me either... Come to think of it she probably knew that if she left me there I would just buy more stuff.

I bought a brand new $50 battery and came home and cut it up. I wanted the battery under the hood but I couldn't fit a 6 cell stick in there so I cut the last two cells off and soldered them back on with some longer leads making a hump pack out of it. Once that was done I got to do this...

The drive motor is causing some grief with the dump motor. At full throttle the dump motor glitches and slowly goes up. I think I need some of those rings that you put on the esc wires....It probably doesn't help that all of the stuff is in such a confined space.
