Yep.

Sorry didn't take any pics though. I started repairing it as soon as I got home. The reason I was running it without a body was that I was still setting it up. Brushless and lipo on pavement require a very different setup than the carpet setup my car had for the last 8 years while collecting dust. Also its a pain trying to set that TC3 up with the amount of torque steer when running with that much power.
