The batteries got pretty warm. The motors have plenty of power to push the beast. I just think the small batteries were the issue. Other than that, it ran good.

Had it running in the garage tonight after a bit of trouble shooting of the electronics. I accidentally connected the Vantec RET-512 turret rotate ESC input voltage backwards. Luckily the mistake caused everything to not work and I killed power before any damage was done to the ESC. It still seems to work fine. I'm charging the batteries now so hopefully I can post some video tomorrow. It's good that it can move on it's own now since it's so heavy I can hardly move it around with everything in it.

I have to re-work a couple of the top deck panels to make them a little more maintenance friendly. I was able to finish the other side last night so today I just have to temp in some electronics to take it out for a spin.
