looks great rah  but to be honest you would be much better of with a cheap hobby grade esc  . i have used these cheap esc before from hong kong and they work flawless you would need two of them of course .pretty easy to do but i think you would have much more control  and these esc are real cheap   check them out http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/EL-Model-RC-Car-300A-Motor-Speed-Controller-ESC-SE089-/390236045661?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item5adbe1815d great project  ;D ;)

His is kinda a throw it together project. If it works, I'll probably do a complete rebuild and make it more of a 4x4 truck. Who knows though.

So was so board dead or just no use to you?

Thanks everyone!

Bummer!!
If anyone has a 49 MHz fast traxx or scorcher for sale please let me know. I only need a working internal circuit board.

Or hell, two 27mhz of the same.

So close.....yet so far :-)

This looks like an interesting project. I hope you get some videos of it running at some point.

The yellow one is in MINT shape. I actually have the box for it, but I needed one to play with :-)

I'm hoping to find a beater that the board still works on it.

Yea, one is brand new in the box, the other I bought "used" in the box, but it looked MINT! I doubt it was ever really used. I went ahead and kept that one out of the box to play around in the house with.

Too nice to chop for my quad motor creation.
