Shoot, I didn’t see this post until it was all packaged up. Hopefully the kid will sign up for a user ID and then post any questions he has on here.

If not done yet - maybe pre-set the B6's charging mode to the supplied battery type? (looks like NiMH, and lowest peak detection threshold could be better :) )

Damn! They just keep raping and raping on the shipping. If only the service got better. I’m out $1200 since November in missing packages

Donated the final $10.50 for shipping

I'd be happy to contribute a couple bucks toward shipping.

Good to see you KenyonsMom. Hope he gets a chance to come on and join here also. If he sticks with the old stuff this is the place he will wanna be :wink: .

These guys did a great job on this car. Its kinda the way this board works and all of the guys that contributed would love to hear from him when he gets it and gets some time behind the radio with it. Hope it makes it there safely and once again, glad to see you stopped in to see what this place is all about.

Thanks for posting on here.
I hope your son will enjoy the car and consider joining our little corner of the internet. It would be our privilage to have him and help him as much or as little as he needs with the RC hobby.
As you can see, we've got a great community here. A lot of us are parents and i think we were all moved by the story of your son and wanted to show him there are good people out there, quite the opposite of those jerks that he experienced elsewhere.
Best wishes to the two of you.

Fantastic to see you around! We hope to come across your son soon, too, and we'll help him the best we can if he has any questions. There is a lot of positive karma on this forum and in our community, which, as you can see, spans across the globe. You two will be welcome if there's anything we can help with!
