Tips

One of the most important things to do is not throw anything away.  You never know when you will need parts.  Servos, esc, scrap body pieces even the parts tree could be used for something.  Keep your mind open and get a good parts bin.  I used the fan off of a bad esc and a servo wire to make a motor fan.  The total cost for the project was $.05.  The cost of some zip ties.
