well guys, I finally got off my lazy bum and decided to follow betty.k's tutorial and create my own offroader. but I'm having a problem supplying power to the beast.

#1, I don't even know if the SE cell works.
#2, I'm having trouble getting power to the cells.
#3, I may not have even wired everything up properly

but I just gotta keep working on it. Anyway. I'll show ya the pics of it anyway.

Looks like you got a great start there work the bugs out and it will be a hot one! where did you get the tires? is that the body you will use for the final car?

Yeah, no shit, it's all down hill from here.
I still need to try betty's supspension.

Make shure you battery is wired to the charger pads on the car, and those are wire to the PCB. Driver's side of the car is negative for the charge pads.
