    I wouldn't pay that much, personally. If that's the motor I think it is, you'll be replacing it before too long. Especially if you plan on getting it dirty.. at all... ever.. even just a little bit...

    Engage Offroad long travel front and rear with some fat tires.
    he could offer $200 and see...

    RC crawlers tend to sell between $300 and $500 depending on how built up it is... this package also includes a custom made trailer too, so it could be a good deal for someone who wants it RTR... personally, i find it therapeutic to build my own... takes me about a year to build one crawler, but it's great relaxing therapy...

    littldvl, ask him for a list of all the parts on the truck build and do a comparable search to other rigs for sale on rccrawler.com

    Quick question for you rc guys, I have my Emaxx that's been sitting and trying to sell. It has all stock electronics(orange esc With the Titan 550 motors). RBP upper and lower arms and titanium skids. Pretty much all stock but it needs a new esc which is $70 at my local hobby store. How much do you guys think I could sell it for?
    It comes with the control and batteries(not lipo)
    I was asking 250 then realized it didn't work so dropped to 170 to cover the cost and still no bites at 140.

    I'll get more info friday on it, also since it was a scx10 kit it came with aluminum link ans steel drivelines. It has extra set of wheels and he says some other parts, trailer aint much but it is with it, ill build another like i did for my dad if i get it.

    I would search rccrawler but i dont have the post count up to see the forsale stuff.

    Its an Alpha, I think it is a .23 size engine

    Its Ryan Lutz's prototype Team Durango Truggy, I'm hoping they release it this summer.

    So I just saw a bracket that makes you be able to run dual motors into one tranny on the honcho, what would the Benefits?

    If one takes a poop? Doesn't seem like you would get more power but maybe I am not thinking straight.
    Thanks






























    Lol. Here it comes stupid questions get stupid answers!!!
