I finally got all the components to make my micro ready to go.

Here was my setup for my first run
Radio: Futuba Magnum Sport
ESC: Orion Flash
Motor: stock
Batts: 4 Duracell AAAs
Servo: Futuba S3003

The first drive consisted of testing it out on many surfaces with the low power AAAs. I was sliding it alll over the place on our tile floor. Speed is decent on carpet as well. The car is a little too big to be run on a pool table, as I found out. Concrete floors work pretty well, as do Asphalt and driveways. When i get some NiMH batt packs, this thing will fly!

I did'nt have hardly any juice left in the transmitter, as i stole the batts out of my Rustler transmitter. Need to buy a bunch.

Still need to paint the body.
Got Racing Red for the Viper.

Does an Indy Silver stripe look good with racing red?

That's all for now.

The TO flash ESC can't handle the BB or anything bigger for that matter, so you will want a Elite Motor!
