Xmas comes early! And from Hong Kong!

They say a watched pot never boils ... likewise a tracked package never arrives. Or that's how it felt, seeing as the first order I placed at Hobby King has a tracking number that's untrackable, and the second seemed to vanish in Switzerland[!] so it was like Xmas coming early when the Swiss package showed up on my desk today - hurray! Hit Back after viewing the images.

These are the dangerous parts for the 12lb drummer - a 42-60 brushless motor with 60A speed controller, and a 2.2Ah 4S 45C LiPo battery pack. Nice :-)

This pack is for the beetle Hyperbolic Hoops 0.9 - a 2.2Ah 3S 25C LiPo pack. Looking forward to getting this installed!

Some cute little antweight parts for Poor Punctuation 0.9 - a 500mAh 2S 15C LiPo pack, a 28-30 brushless motor, and a speed controller for it.

Getting smaller still, this tiny 350mAh 2S 20C pack is for our next fairyweight ... the motors for it were ordered before this shipment from Hobby King but haven't shown up yet ...

A few miscellaneous parts, including JST connectors to be able to make charging pigtails for our smaller battery packs, and some 1g foam wheels for both the fairyweight and antweight.

Choices, choices ... we ordered this 35-42 motor for Hyperbolic Hoops 0.9 along with the 40A speed controller, before finding the 18-12 Nippy and it's Jeti speed controller amongst our stuff in the Build Space. We'll carry on building with the Nippy for now, but reserve the right to switch to this motor if either we (a) blow up the Nippy; or (b) want more power!
