Anyone into R/C?

Ha ha ha! Mine does that too. He'll nose the truck at some point too-tho lately, he's been snapping at it

 

Fun times. Yeti SCORE Trophy Truck. Started with a 2s LiPO and went for 3s. Much better.

 

How do you like it?? Im wanting to pick one up myself. Was sold on the Slash 4x4 loaded with all the cool features.. But that Yeti...

 

I don't know I could draw a direct comparison between the two yet. They're different. Different suspension setups. Different motor/driveline. They're both very sweet vehicles.

 

I've been thinking about adding one to my collection. I almost pulled the trigger on one from tower hobbies until I saw that coupon codes could not be used for that model. I'm hoping things go like they did for the XO-1 and the price drops off after a while. We shall see!!

 

You're gonna need a couple hundo just in batteries to get going. It runs with two of the big 3s batteries. Maybe the coupon code for that instead?
I want one but I'm gonna wait a bit.

 

I'm good on batteries. I have a "few" other RC cars and trucks and a shit ton of batteries from 2S to 6S lipos. I just built a yeti xl last summer and most recently picked up an associated B44.3 4wd 1:10 scale buggy. Like someone else said...it starts with one and then it's just as bad as modding the Tacoma. For me it all started with a brushed Rustler. I'm glad my wife is beyond cool too. Between RC cars, stuff for the truck, guns and cycling the average wife would have had a major shit fit, lol!! I have too many hobbies!
This is a few of them on the wall.



This is my 1/8 scale Ofna road car with Audi body:

Can't wait to add an X-Maxx to the collection!!

 

I figured sometime after Christmas I'd get one. But I want one of those SC10s too. I'm convinced to get the brushed version and then upgrade some bits. We'll see.

 

yea i'm a fan...i've seen taillights put in them which i may look into

plan was to eventually swap the whole body out for a full hilux...but this gives me a full truck for now...just need a roof rack and RTT then it'll almost look like my truck

 

I was looking at a topper and bedsides for mine on Sunday morning

 

I am a full-time editor and reviewer for RCGroups.com and FlyingGiants.com. Back in the day, I wrote as an independent contractor for RC Car Action and RCUniverse.com. Heres some pictures Ive taken over the years of various vehicles Ive owned and reviewed

 

So....much....money

 

That's not even a quarter of them all! And don't forget the airplanes, multirotors, and boats!

 

That is so cool. I had a friend with a Miss Budweiser RC when we were younger. So fast and so fun.

 

RC yota mini truck...

 

The MX-3FG is only 80 bucks now?!?! I bought mine 5 years ago for 200 bucks.... sobbing

 

Has anybody seen this yet? Speculation on a new mystery rc from venture I believe. Only pic I could find for now but looks real good, definitely just as good if not better than the cc01 FJ I'm hoping

 

Not a big fan of the platform, but this is my Yeti

 

Ok seriously, that's hot!!

 

Great, now I have to throw my deadbolt in the trash and get that
