Day 2444

 I woke up at 8 and played games until 10.  Then it was up for breakfast (Ellen fed the cats).  Then I went out to the shed to work on the B6.4.

I re-positioned the ESC and receiver.  That allowed me to route the sensor wires under the battery with no interference.  It took some trial and error to get it all worked out.  Then I connected up the servo and ESC to the receiver.  It's ready to test out after I solder the motor leads.

When I was finished with that I loaded the garbage into the truck and went to the club to dump it.  We also stopped in and bought another case of ammo.  After a stop at the post office we went down to the RC store.  Ellen needed another can of paint.  We saw this cute 1/16 scale buggy and bought it, too.  It was only $160 and was completely RTR.  I really bought it because the store looks like it could use some business.

We stopped at the teriyaki place in Keizer on the way back.   I think it will become our favorite place in Keizer.  Afterwards we walked over for frozen yogurt.

Two cards came in the mail today.  Both of us had to work to get them activated.  One would only let Ellen do it.  I unboxed the buggy and put it on charge.  It took a long time to charge.  I surfed while I waited and later had leftovers for dinner.

After dinner I fired up the buggy.  I could only drive it inside.  It works great.  I think Ellen will like driving it.  I'm planning on both of us practicing on the track at the same time.

After playing with the buggy I sat down and started watching videos for the new buggy on the TV.  Ellen watched, too.  After a while I switched to pricing out hop ups for the new buggy.
