Decided to splurge and get the charger BDR recommended:

Got a paraboard like the one donkey posted from ebay as well as 6 new batteries.

Next step will probably be converting the MSRx to brushless when I start burning up motors with all these batteries.

I picked up a team associated TC-3 with the rally conversion off the local forum. I waited over a month for the price to drop and talked him down some more 😉 It’s definitely a fun little car…

Bad ass rally car. I beat the shit out of my RC’s this weekend. Had to actually hose them off when I was done.

Ok, so I need a charger that has a shut down protector, Digital read out with the duration of time for charging, amount of charge the battery is taking, the amps its charging at…etc. I’d like either a single with built in which I would get 2 of them. Or I’d look into a 2-4 port charger… but right now I know I can get one for about $35 or so for a single with built in power supply. So two of them would be about $65-70

Also looking for cheaper places to find tires. I’d like to get a set of 4, maybe a proline style. I’d only use 2 of them and save the other two for rears as well. Let me know if you have any places of suggestions on where to go.

Losi micro rock crawler is up for sale if anyone wants it? $50 ready to run, 2.4 radio, only used a couple times… losi discontinued these so 50 is a great price.

I have been thinking about this also, but brushless upgrade requires the larger 200mAh batteries and no more flight time, but more punch. Not sure if it is worth the upgrade on the MSRx or just move up to the MCPx and then put a brushless upgrade on that bird

i’ll probably keep the mini-t for now, but make an offer on the SCT, i haven’t used it in a few months so its just collecting dust, comes with everything it had stock(except the lug wrench as i lost that) not even sure what it would be worth used
