CounterSteer RC Drifting

HAI :)
It has been a while since I updated this blog. Well for that I'm really sorry, I've been very busy and will still be busy until the November. I have not played my RC for a while now huhuhu, I hope all that will change after November.

Well as you guys can read from the title of this post, Im going to talk about CS rc drifting. What I've noticed it that this kind of rc drifting is growing in a tremendous rate around the world. Could this be the next big thing?? I hope so I watched a few videos of it in youtube and it looks like a lot o fun. I would like to try in one day. Well I hope this trend will start to grow in Brunei, well I had a few of my friends that had strated to search for the perfect set-up for Countersteering. It seems like it had started to grow yipeeee!! hahaha

Thats all for now, don't forget to check this blog after november for updates.
Thanks for reading :D

Saying goodbye to another li-po batt...

Just now i found out that my YR 5000mAH li-po batt was connected to the esc. Apparently it has been like that for a few days and when I check it...the part of the hard casing had slightly opened up. I decided to open it and check wether the battery had expand sevearly but I failed to open it.
Soooo...( here comes the bad part) I used a small screw driver to open it. While trying to open it I saw a spark the a lot of smoke came out of the battery. I panicked and threw the batt outside. To prevent any explosion in the house.I watched sadly as the smoke kept coming out for a few minutes. For sure I know the batt is no longer can be use. I went out to check it out and I saw this!!!.... :'-(
