Found R/C car in loft
Discussion
Hi All,
I've been clearing the loft and found my Traxxas Rustler R/C truck. It's been up there for ages so I'm think that the batteries will be completely dead.
What can I do to get it up and running again? I've seen people talking about 30 minute + run times, which is a bit of a change from the 3 minutes that I was used to! (Along with 4 hour charging).
I've still got all the radio gear, so i guess just some new cells, charger and electronic speed controller? I'll only use it in the garden/park so don't want to spend too much..
Thanks!

My recomendations if you don;t want to spend too much.
