Everything is back together, charged up so time to hit the field behind the house. I'm glad I didn't head to the bash site, the Photo Buggy was having radio problems, I finally figured out it was the GoPro Wi-Fi interfering with the receiver.


Video is rough, but it shows the mount is steady.

 
Thanks. I was hoping the vibration would be damped out.

Doggone GoPro Wi-Fi kept causing the servos to center, but the system stayed linked so the Killer Bee didn't activate, then I'd get control again. Want some excitement, have the engine go to idle just as you hit a jump. The front falls through like it was hit with a hammer. Did a wheelbarrow landing then the throttle went to full so the front wheels pulled it through and no endo. Won't be using the GoPro app on the smart phone again.

I think it's ready for the bash area now.

That dirt makes me want spring time real bad lol.I think the high was 0 with white crap all over. Awsome vid on the photo buggy. works good
 
sayy- thats got great audio! Is that a stock hy? It would be cool to take it out on a football field- the track that surrounds the field- lean that puppy out on the hsn and see just how hard it will rev out!! Thanks for the vid 409!
 
It's a stock HY, carb and clutch, small mods. Tall velocity stack and DT1 air filter. X-Can with 8" long 1/2" ID silicon stingers, one pinched around 1/8' by the plastic ties mounting it to the wing cross bar. No pinch on the other stinger. Definitely getting back pressure pulses to the carb, it's uses more gas then the stock can, or the X-Can without the stingers. Never got around to leaning the HSN with the radio glitches on this run, the plug was showing real dark grey afterwards. 'Course, it was around 40 degrees warmer the last time I tuned it a week or so ago. In tune there is no lag, just go. I'm going to play around with the setup some more, then try it on the OBR Pro Stock. :)
