Planning on doing my first snow bash with the Senton, is there any prep or anything I should do electronic wise to protect them? Happy Bashing

Take body off and hang chassis (upside down) to dry afterwards.. should do the trick.

hang the chassis right not the body? i read that quickly and saw hang the body upside down.

I will def do that, Thanks!

1. Silicone spray on sensitive areas/bearings (not electronics)
2. Bash
3. Air compressor over entire car
4. Prop upside down in garage
5. Point big fan at it overnight

A little extra work but snow bashing is so much fun. Bearings wear a little faster but not too bad. Haven’t had issues with rust or damage to electronics.

All that said, my nicest rigs don’t see snow.

Be carefull with jumping, cold plastic gets more brittle and breaks quicker.

1 or 2 inches of snow to start. Your short coarse truck wont fare well. You would want an opened wheel rig. . Get snow Treads.

Yeah i’m aware it won’t be the greatest, but it’s still fun!

Get the Scorched RC inner fenders. Makes a world of difference keeping debris out of the chassis.
