took out the servo, the XL-5 esc and possibly the reciever. took a pic after i turned it off. was on for about 3 seconds, and made a pop so i turned it off. smoke insued.

was a result of me being half asleep this morning and putting the power to the wrong wire.... opps.

damage report tonight when i get home. im thinking its all toasted.

servos are cheap, i got one with all metal gears for $20 shipped to my door. i'm running 2.2 tires/wheels too, never had a problem

this was one out of a nitro buggy from years ago.

idk which ones your running but mine arent cheap.

I run 400 oz-in steel hardened servo from hightech. the HS-7954SH. they retail for just over $105 each.

stock scx10 is 130 oz-in. just to compare the power. It bent a metal servo horn in half... but when i want to trun, i turn.
 
electrical+smoke=bad day lol. that does not look like it's gonna be fun man.
 
well the results....


Toasted servo.. OBVIOUSLY.

weird part... reciever is fine, ESC fried.... explain that one! brand new traxxas XL-5 esc, GONE. ****.

Oh well. running a tazer esc with 55 turn venom and 16 tooth 48P. slow but powerful. So shes good to go. oh and sticking to 2ws.
 
you need a tiny ford emblem to put on the grill of the green truck
 
yeah, i've always thought they were tacomas


i spy a little MW3 action in that one pic :icon_hornsup:
