The ESC barely fit between the steering servo and the battery post. I think they should have moved the battery posts backwards about 2 mm. I have a smaller ESC on order. This is just temporary. I cannibalized the ESC from my BSR BZ-222.
The car handles this kind of track surface superbly, which is no surprise as it's close to how many tracks were in the 80's. The tires are perfect for grass, moss and exposed soil.
Something was chirping. Probably the rear diff (layshaft) so I took it easy on the launch. The rear diff is very stiff due to being situated in the layshaft, but still chirps, unless it's the front diff that chirps. Will find out soon.
