the bottom picture is a Duratrax Nitro BX. Are the other 2 front wheel or 4 wheel drive? I've seen that front on the one with the pillowball suspension before but no idea what it was... Todd That buggy was my main question, thought maybe it was an associated gas buggy I didn't know existed, chassis...

Here's a few.

Straightened the pins as best I could, along with one of the front shock shafts that was pretty bad too.

Well, two years later I finally started really tearing into this thing. Took the front assembly apart and there's a lot of things tweaked like misc screws bent. Couple of the hinge pins bent. One steering knuckle has a 10/24 hex head bolt jammed in place of a shoulder screw that was long enough to r...

Better to lose batteries than the house or you or your families life, it's a precautionary action. I'm going to grab one soon, I just wish it didn't look like a Batman lunch box. lol

Sizzlers !

Very cool, read both threads !

I wonder if they both had the MIP battery pads ? I've got a black one like that still in my trx.

That's terrible, thankfully you and your pets came out okay ! This is why I'd rather be safe than sorry with this stuff.

So with all that stuff I've been talking about I get home yesterday from a 4 month business trip and grab my race stuff from storage... Bring it home all excited to wire up a new B6, you know cause the perfectly good one sitting in front of me isn't black and green. Pull my stocker out of my Pelica...

I'll definitely be watching for your thoughts on these.

Prevention.

If they do what they say all the shops should be jumping on this ? I'd like a couple myself, one for charging and another for storing. They look to be local to me too, but it might be a few months before I can even think about it.

I've watched a vented top ammo case video in the past and it still blew out through the hole made for the charging wires, this looks pretty serious (images from the rcgroups thread).
