    When I saw the Charger upgrade, off hand I didn't realize it was larger - until I actually seen one at Walmart. This is my other favorite from the first movie.. then the second there was the silver with the blue stripes ?was that a Skyline too? Then they kept adding some classics!

      I started as a Janitor at an airport taking out trashes and cleaning bathrooms, My Hard Work got me Promoted to Maintenance where I started working with tools and heavy machinery. They Promoted me again to Fabrication where I began making Aircraft Parts from scratch using Sheet Metal and Blueprints and installing them directly on the skydiving plane. That gave me enough experience to start making Jet Engine Turbines and Rocket Launches made from Composite for the Government. Then started Prototyping new Large Scale Drones for Companies like Northrop Grumman and SiriusXM (Both Launch into Space)..
      So if a Janitor can turn into an Aerospace Engineer…
      You Can Do Anything!!!

    hah nice work! i have a Twisted Metal 'Sweet Tooth' van RC that I want to upgrade but I'm inexperienced and for being a toy they're pretty expensive. i have a 2s ESC and motor laying around from a 1/10 scale Arrrma Gorgon that would make it riiip but i'm so scared of failing lol. Really unsure if the motor would fit. 550 motors are pretty big. Probably easier to just fit the body to something else.

    Is it right - due to 2 in 1 esc you didnt need a second esc to run servo . It can run both servo and rear motor yeah ,Otherwise you would need two of them ?
