After the wheel dying disaster i've fitted some black wheels from the jun watanabe special hornet.
More wiring done have made a small dashboard to hold the lipo monitors so they can be seen by tilting the camera down

Here is a sample of video. It's recorded from the video receiver with a cheap jxd990 recorder, which despite being on max quality really amplifies any picture quality problems.
I'm going to have to find a better quality recorder.
The lipo monitor mount is off in this vid so please excuse the wonky monitors.

I might bring this along at the weekend get it messed up!!
I have messed it up a bit already.
I was driving around in the roof space of the shed by FPV and the throttle got knocked while i was panning the camera and it fell 8 feet on to concrete.
Thankfully it only smashed the nose cone and bent the bumper.
Lots of glue later it's bodged back together.
