    Nothing worse than doing a late night rush for the next day and having a major breakdown like yours. Hope the damage is not a total wipeout for you!

    Canabus, I have a new one to build, and hope that I can match your quality of workmanship. I'm also interested in your brushless combo as my previous Commander had the originally supplied 750 can motor and a 12v SLA battery. Im probably not going to build until early next year.

    Krick Anna. Steam plant Cheddar. Now 20 years old and had a recent refurb (2022) Owner is Arnold, has Spot The Dog as a companion, along with several of the pups!

    The gas tank is under the forward hatch and there is a vacuum release valve at the top of the gauge glass.
