Looks like I just missed the boat on a nostalgic run.
Just charged my Phil Greenwood matched 1700 SCE Batterys for the first time in what must be 15 years and they charged and my Procat lived. After a minute it stoped running. The connecting wire between the saddle packs had come off. Charged my second set and we were away again. I drove it for another 2 mintues and the rear wing flew off. O-rings perished. Then 20 seconds later I hit a lamp post and broke the servo horn. So that was brief!
But, Would an old procat be totally outclassed in todays field?
