Very cool... how do the paddles do in the snow?

Woah-what is that, a bandit? Never seen anybody with one of those before! Just for safe measures, I would throw a balloon or something over the end of the motor to keep water out...

I have one. LOL. You have rustler arms and wheels right? I am thinking about doing that sometime.

Water on the motor is not bad for it. Just need to make sure it all dries. I read before that some people break-in there eletric motors in water. I don't because to me water and eletric(ity) motor don't go together all that well.

Not sure about the front, but the rears are on right.

yeah, ive never seen the electric break in water thing, but i think it would be pretty cool to try, i think u have to have the tank grounded somehow and i dont think that the water will really carry that small of an electric current but ya never know.

I need to get a set of paddles for the Pede, I have run the Pede once in snow(with the stock wheels and tires) and it did pretty good, didn't get stuck and didn't really get to wet either.

These wheels were originally intended for my Pede, but the Bandit seems to work better with teh reletivly flat bottom. Had it out behind the St. Charles store yesterday on lunch, It worked pretty good as long as I stayed out of the really soft stuff.

Paddles for a mini. Now thats sweet.

The Bandit looks so much better with rustler wheels and arms. I put my maxx springs on the rear of my bandit yesterday before I went out and ran it. It also looks better with a different colored body.
