As Lew is well aware it is not necessarily the height of the water that really counts, within reason of course. Just a few inches of water can ruin the flooring and cause damage to the walls and any thing sitting on the floor making it necessary to remove the water damaged areas of the walls along with the insulation to prevent mold.

Good news Roy. I know how you feel from experience. They don't want you to drive for a while (can't remember for how long) because they don't want you to damage your healing eye in case of a sudden stop.
Also you may thing about removing the lens of your glasses on the side that was just operated on.

let us know how you make out finding a wider center dead spot. I like the way you can easily tune the Hobbywing ESC using their program card.

Just to add something to help tune/adjust an ESC is get a programming card or programming device to tune or easily setup your ESC. It sure make this a easier thing then retrying to keeps track of the number of beeps or flashing light.

I am glad to hear that Lew and Isaac survived the storm. I was worried about the both of you and the others in the path of the storm.
And they say that the weather is not changing for the worst, what a bunch of A-holes. Len

I agree with peejay that it could be storm related. I have seen more related to storm activity than stupidity of the captain. Len
