Yeah, it costs an ARRM-a and an leg.$1900??!!
Damn, that sounds about as fun as masturbating with a cheese grater.Forgot to disconnect the motor on my Limitless when changing some settings in the transmitter. Did something that caused instant full throttle. Ended up laying 4 strips of rubber across the work bench and up my hand (vaporizing skin in the process). No damage to the car but my hand took a couple weeks to heal. Had rubber around the perimeter of the wound pretty much for the entire healing process.
Engine cut on the nb4 is now my friendDamn, that sounds about as fun as masturbating with a cheese grater.
To remedy this issue, if you haven't already, I'd seriously recommend investing $30-40 in a stand for your vehicle. I know this exact situation surely will never be replicated, but you never know. That way your car would at least be off of the work surface. Two other options would be to loosen the motor mount and slide the motor back a few millimeters or take the wheels off the car.

That sounds like it's sucked, pretty bad. People don't realize how dangerous a toy car can be.I actually ordered a stand later that day and have used it ever since when working on the car..

I store my RC vehicles on the boxes parts come in to keep the tires from getting flat spots, and I occasionally use a box as a work stand if my real work stand is in use.I use the HW max6 box for my limitless.
Not long ago I hadn't push a QS8-s connector completely in all the way and it got very hot and melted. Had to replace it. It was new.
Yes that's exactly what happened.Been there... It sucks. It's easy to miss. The Anti-spark side burns because when the aren't fully seated all the current goes through the 5Ω resistor.

While on the topic. Is it normal for QS8-S (anti-spark) connectors to still spark? When connecting 8s.Been there... It sucks. It's easy to miss. The Anti-spark side burns because when the aren't fully seated all the current goes through the 5Ω resistor.

Not if you use the female positive side. Maybe, you might a little click... maybe? But definitely not a spark.While on the topic. Is it normal for QS8-S (anti-spark) connectors to still spark? When connecting 8s.
Ah yes there's my mistake. I contacted the negative last. Thanks.Not if you use the female positive side. Maybe, you might a little click... maybe? But definitely not a spark.
That particular socket has a 5.1Ω resistor that makes contact first to slow the in rush current.
