  • Oh and also is it ok to run lipos in water? i have one and wasnt sure if u could

  • @timgaylehughes yes and no. I run mine in water but I have sealed the packs just to keep all the solder joints free of water. The lipo cells themselves are airtight but everything will corrode eventually so it's all about how you treat it.

  • Is there any special grease in the summit bearings? JW because it is made to like go anything and was wondering if it had better bearings in it for water use. Thanks!(:

  • @timgaylehughes No traxxas bearings are only oiled. Now go pack those bearings!

  • ok so i just made a rcnightmare account and all my posts or replys have to be approved by a moderator is this always like this and is there ever a moderator on their to approve them?

  • Hhahahh,,i couldnt get my connector off,,and i told my dad and he said use some dielectric grease..and it made it worse!!
