Hey guys...

Anyone have a kit or one build they are willing to part with?

Thanks!

Too late, I sold mine.
You can get one here...Scamper-1 (http://www.advantagehobby.com/product.php?productid=72760)

Funny, you live roughly 1 hour 30 minutes away (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=Noblesville,+IN&daddr=2708+N.+Mattis+Ave+%23D+Champaign,+IL+61826&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&sll=40.087605,-87.12798&sspn=1.893192,3.166809&ie=UTF8&ll=40.092781,-87.143555&spn=1.893075,3.166809&t=h&z=9) from them. :)

Thanks, I saw that they are located in Champaign...hopefully if i do order one it will ship fairly quickly...

Do you mind giving me a little feedback on how yours ran, did it do well in grass and other non smooth terrain? I like the fact it comes with a brushless motor and from the videos it looks like it does fairly well on water, but as it is a marketing video they always look better than they really are.

Did you use yours on water? If you stop, then start back up does it get waterlogged?

THanks in advance!

Also if you dont mind...What battery did you use with this?

It says 3-4 cell lipo...but the biggest batteries I have are 3 cell 2100..

Does it really require the 4th cell?

I never ran mine on the water. but she did run well even on the short grass. Tall grass gave it a hard time. I ran mine on a 3S Maxamp lipo 1500. Never used a 4s on it.
