  • Hello
    Welcome back to another video from Chelmswood Modelling.
    In this video while we are on holiday in the beautiful Devon town of Dawlish Warren we take the FTX DR8 to the beach as it is a dessert buggy.
    Unfortunately we did have 2 casualties and that's my 2 3s lipos got sea water in them and made them puff up and no longer working.
    so if you are going to take any battery near sea water protect your batteries.
    Hope you all enjoy this video as always I had a blast making it please as always feel free to like, share, comment and subscribe.
    Until the next video take care of yourselfs protect your loved ones but above all happy modelling.

      Also did you wash the car down with fresh clean water after to remove all the salt ? As I dare say that run will reak havoc with your bearings and motor .

      Hiya mate
      Yeah I did wash it all off with fresh water and gave it a brushing down after.
      So far it's OK.
