    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    Yes you can...:D I talked to Tony at Hitec RCD on Friday and that was one of the questions I asked him about this... His answer was...They were not originally specced as HV servos, however, it will not harm them to run on HV. The only thing that may happen is that you may get some jitter while...

    42" Vyper Bype

    And..... As I have sold out of the battery trays I designed for the Byper, I am going to order another batch.... $20.60 including PayPal fees and shipping via USPS Priority mail. These trays make securing the battery a lot easier.... SteveT.

    Don't use a strap. I found the very best way to fasten in a battery (along with my battery box..:D) is to use shock cord and a cord lock... You just make a loop with the cord and a cord lock. Then to install the battery, slide it in and cinch it down! Works wonderfully Here is a photo... SteveT.

    At least it was on the motor side and not the battery side of the ESC....that would have been disastrous.... SteveT.

    I have received the first test batch of these battery box/trays, but I had a slight flaw where two pieces do not overlap as they should due to an incorrect measurement on my part, but have ordered new pieces to correct this.... I will have them for sale in about a week if anybody is interested...

    42" Vyper Bype

    I certainly could......and yes, it is (at least for me, with my big meat-hooks) a bit difficult... I have already designed one for the 51" Slick....what size batteries (L X W X H) are you using....it "might" work... SteveT

    42" Vyper Bype

    So....since I just got a new batch in, I thought I would post this again, ..... As those of you that have a Byper know, it is a bit difficult to get two straps on the battery.....so, I designed a battery tray/box that holds the front of the battery in place without a strap, and it works very...

    I have a two stall garage for my shop but still not enough room....What I would really like would be a home with a basement that is open to the garage at the back of the house....but, there are almost no homes with basements here in San Jose, let alone ones like that.... SteveT.
