I got my R/C monster truck ready for winter and decided to have a little fun in the parking lot at my work.

lay: The "action" shots I had to take while holding my phone in one hand and trying to drive the car with the other, which was a wee bit difficult.

I know there are others here with R/C vehicles, so you can winterize your little ride by wrapping up your servos and other electronics and batteries in balloons or, if space is tight, plastic wrap.

The subject of today's photo shoot is an HPI Savage X SS.

And here it is after it ran out of fuel:

You know I had to work in the Escape somehow...

With the body off. The big purple thing on the right side of the picture is the heatsink for the engine.

Now I just need some real snow around here! :calvin:

Wow, nice Revo! I've never driven one, but they look awesome. That, and I almost everything I've read about them has been positive. Yours is just sooo clean; you need to go dirty it up a little! :taz:

For my Savage, driving it in the snow is like giving it a bath. I swear it's cleaner now than it was before!

I've thought about finding that body for my Savage, too, but am also not sure if it'll fit. Any chance you could give us some dimensions of the Escape body?
