You have my number, and you know where to find me.
Thanks bro. Since the weather is rather unpredictable these days, I may not see you that soon. I saved my batts already, and also got myself a Yuntong 5000mah Lipo and balanced charger.

Alamak... I also want lipo, but the nimh like don't want to die yet.
Oh well, guess have to stay behind all you lipo trucks and pick up lost screws then.

Try to tie up a magnet near bumper, help pick up the screws on the way much easier... For best results, try Novak Havoc Brushless Series magnet....

Cheers!! Love the ample infos on Lipo here.
