So at the competition, I got the idea to tell him that we broke one of our speed controllers, but I wasn't sure which one -- so we'd have to order ten more just to be safe! Now, it was either that or the virus that made him sick ... I'm not too sure
victor 884s are only about $115us right? our engineers give us a credit card and let us get it online....
