lol,
To find a servo in that price range, torque, & speed is hard.
I can buy two of them for the price of my 1/8 buggy throttle servo;
However it is lacking metal gears, & bearing support.
The old saying, "Price, Quality, Performance.... pick two"
The transformation is done.
The Traxxas radio gear & speed con is now in the RC10T.
My Slash & T3 have Futaba AM, & Novak, both tuned for one transmitter.
Week three & LRP/AE is still dinking around.

did some work and still had time to play
the plywood will have to be replaced on the ramp to the drivers stand. I have alot of deck boards at home. should get the ramp itself most of the way replaced as soon as the electric is turned on. lance (sleddog) has a box of screws he will donate for the job.
the track is in pretty good shape. the jumps held up pefect thu the winter. its still a little soft where the drain is. just by us stirring it up and the wind today, did help. we should find a way to drain that area better.
we pulled about 75% of the pipes to make room for a bobcat and drag. wont take long at all to get ready.
if we can get the power turned on soon, this track will be up and running by may 3rd. I think we can race then
