Howdy y'all! 
So I finally finished my Mega Infraction to 4s build. I already posted the details and some pics here:
Post in thread 'What did you work on today?' https://www.arrmaforum.com/threads/what-did-you-work-on-today.9619/post-805188
Had adulting to do most of the day yesterday
, so was rushing to get it done to get a quick run in before dark.
The CF splitter, rear winglets, side panels and GPS mount arrived Sat so I was able to get those on before it's 1st run. SCORE!
The only thing I forgot was to center servo with the saver off/rig on.
I hate these upside down servos. Just a PITA to get to. Didn't realize this until I started setting the EPA. O well, it was gettin dark so eff it, I just used the steering adj. on radio to get em sorta straight! 
I'll redo the alignments and EPA today.
Also due to hurrying, did not get Gopro on or my new GNSS GPS.
Didn't really need em though due to space. Had wifey take vid on my phone.
Had a blast with it!! DEF need a larger area. Couldn't drift at all, (got some mini-drifts that got me all excited!!) but it was still fun getting the hang of it. Only flipped it once doing donuts and hit the gutter downspout once. No biggie. 
Everything seemed to run smoothly from my build. Those PH Tornado fans freaking blow like crazy!! 
Motor never went much above 100.....but it was cool out and I barely had it full throttle at all. ESC was good too.
Did learn quick though that yeah, you ain't gettin' out of much grass with silver hoons!
Also, don't fall into drainage rocks and try to get out with this. 
I picked it up and about a dozen rocks fell out! 
Put it down, seemed good (never took lid off 
) and started running it and oooooooooo...
...that don't sound good....a small rock wedged in-between the motor fan mount and the center driveshaft.....put a nice little gouge in my aluminum driveshaft. If I'd kept going it would have probably cut it in half!! Got it out and it ran just fine! 
I'll fix up the steering, try some different gearing AFTER I run it in a much larger space!!
