Anyone into R/C?

I race sportsman buggy. I usually a regular in the A main with a few top 5 finishes.. class is crazy competitive there. Lots of fun tho. Love the challenge and will hopefully win some races soon.

 

Went for a spin yesterday.


Took a good tumble and ended up with a broke wheel. Sucks because there isn’t a hobby shop for 100 miles around here. Guess I’ll bring a spare wheel next road trip or swap to metal wheels.


I actually have a small-medium sized Pelican case I’ll bring with my micro crawlers in it. They’ll do better with the limited ‘natural’ terrain since it’s so dry out here where the end of my road trip was. But the Wraith did well, just not as good as I had wanted it to do.

 

It's a mix of anything. The dam buggies are just to fast. I need a buggy and I can start moving up. Slash is fun but can not keep up with the buggies.

 

Slash is fun for a while but as youve notice, isnt competitive. I went to a tekno sct410 but left SCT altogether, i have a 1/8 ebuggy which was fun but everyone and their cousin races thay class so im now in 1/8 etruggy.

 

Ya that is how our Sportsman class is. It's open and you can run it until you win, then you have to move up to your vehicle-specific class. But ya, the kit buggies are super fast. You will certainly pick up speed overall with a good buggy.

 

Yeah it's fun if its against other short course tricks, but otherwise if I get 1/10th buggy I will race against better drivers and have more fun.

 

pm me when they have a Gen.3 double cab Off-Road model...... (preferably Quicksand .....)

 

couple of guys at the track have some super detailed crawlers. that shit looks cool. even with little trailers and stuff haha

 

found some fun lines to play around on last week while heading to overland expo...

 

Those backdrops are amazing...where is that?

 

above lake powell and above sedona

 

do i see grand bench in the background?

 

Very nice.
When the paint is coming off on the inside, then you know you're doing it right.

 

Well, I did it. Needs batteries.

 

Love it, first impressions?

 

o shit someone got a UDR lol. Those look fun. Still waiting for the E revo to be in stock.

 

That's looks pretty good

 

It's beefy AF. It's like the Xmaxx.

Boy, the E-Revo 2.0 is a hot product. No one seems to know when they'll be available. Can't wait to see one in person.

Thanks!

 

That does look nice. Too bad about the proprietary integral battery plugs.
That's the only real thing keeping me from getting one.
