Anyone into R/C?

20 out of 29 people would agree with you.

Guess I'll be taking apart the Dementor soon

It's ok though because it didn't take long to get here although I'll end up with a lot of extra parts since the Valkyrie kit comes with links and a transmission -



Oh and for anyone looking at Hard Park axles, check out the difference in width!

 

Super of your "crawler corner"!
That vertical climb is ridiculous.

 

Sorry, my post blended in with your video...

 

Big kid tiny truck esc ordered

Figured it's small enough to fit into either rig

 

Ok I narrow down my picks to 2. The Capra 10 or the gilamon.

 

@gdb85 appreciate the kind words brotha. I'm looking into competing for the first time at some point this year.

 

You're supposed to learn and compete, not show up with a rig that'll dominate

 

Bought an Injora half cage to try and make work on the C2X. It's... going to be a little project.

 

Really digging that! Me personally I'd chop the rear tubing where the tire mounts and mount the tire against the cab

 

still some fine tuning to do but the rigs are just about comp ready.

 

That's the plan. Going to take some time, this was just first mockup. And then I go onto Amazon and find other options that would make mounting the tire easy but then no cage

 

Which to take on a hike this weekend...

TRX4M Tarantula on LGRP Gripper tires, Injora suspension, running full droop
Ascent 18 with IR40 body, LGRP Black Label M/T tires, stock otherwise
FCX24 on Injora Obsidian tires, stock suspension and upgraded motor/trans and servo, but not my most reliable rig

C2X is also coming with for a bigger hike if it happens

 

Edit: Wheels/tires all interchangeable, obviously
Edit x2: Probably some snow on the ground on the trails

 

I vote Tarantula. Buggy's are gtg on any terrain.
Or the Ascent 18.

 

Thinking A18, the Tarantula is amazing indoors but struggles a little outside. & I haven't had the A18 outside yet

 

Ordered a set of 62mm tires and 10mm brass hex extensions for my Ascent. New body looks great but the 58mm tires look too small. Ordered the most aggressive tread pattern to match the kind of “yee yee” mud truck look I’m going for. Going to use my silicone rings from the 58s to get good squish.

 

I have those tires on a FCX24. Very soft and really good grip.

 

Hooned some JDM goodness with @tonered @Bertw192. Let’s do this again soon boys!

 

Phone Bomb!

It was a great time. These Kyoshos are killer.
