Storing Cars?
So I am putting my cars in a long term store (3-4 months) and I was wondering with the electronics should i remove them? Because I am putting them in a storage room that is fairly cold and I dont want them to get condensation or something and ruin them..
In the cars I have servos, receivers, motors, and batteries, is that all fine or should i remove them?

Other than normal storage of your batteries I wouldn't worry about anything.
Condensation would only be a worry if the humidity was very high and you took them from cold to hot. From a 50 degree storage shed to the garage for a day then the house, no problem. Under a tarp in the rain? You will have problems.
Many times Iv'e pulled cars out from months or even years of storage and after normalizing in the house for a coupe days while I prep them never had an issue.

make sure you dont store the vehicle with weight on the tires. either remove the tires or support the chassis. Otherwise, you will come back to nice flat spots.

Store it with desiccant and you should have zero problems with your electronics. Should be able to find it for cheap at most Army/Navy stores
