So I go to the post office yesterday and pick up my brand new revo...I have to wait a couple of days to get my 7.2volt battery and charger that I bought online so I was like dang it, It's so nice and dry out...So my dad says okay, I'll buy you a charger and battery, so we go today to radio shack and get a battery and charger (very good deal, battery and charger 7.2 volts and 2000 mAH). So we buy it and when we start to leave it starts RAINING, I mean come on...Just let me break it in....So i'm bored. So I am letting my battery charge!:(

Glad to see you are over it NOW. It is all part of the FUN. I crash and burn parts all the time and it is not a cheap hobby. A day without breakage is a great day. A day with with breakage means I get to tear it down then put it back together both are fun.
Get used to it is all I have to say.
I have been running R/Cs for about 10 years now and still can't wait to play the next time I get a chance.
Ran mine in 45 deg weather this weekend in a park just so I could play. I can't wait till I get back on a prepared track again with Jumps for my off roads and for my onroads just cruising around a race track.
I have about 10 R/Cs and play with them all.
