Anyone into R/C?

I think because it's mostly 13-year old nerdy kids who are super OCD

 

naw RCTech is filled with a bunch of wanna-be pros who think their shit don't stink.

But there are a few that are very helpful

 

Yea, there are always exceptions. The world is filled with dumbasses, though.

 

Nice! Thanks for posting the video link, is the ESC/motor the same on the SC10?

 

On the brushless rtr i'm pretty sure it is. I started with the brushed rtr and upgraded to castle stuff. (it was my first r/c)

 

epa, do you plan on running lipo batteries? you said you have a charger but if you haven't been in the hobby for a while you might want to check out lipo batteries. They're truly a miracle.

 

Have you seen my stapler? That has got to be one of the top five comedy flix ever. I watched it for the umpteenth time last weekend.

 

Hahaha, I watched it, too. I wish I could just do nothing. Hell, I almost don't do anything....

Almost.

 

Damn what kind of servos are you using on that honda?

 

Sweet tard... I'll see can I get some pics of mine up.

Cross roads on my built.

Bought a hi-tech 400 oz servo and Castle bec.

Electronics where and what to use.

Do I use the Holmes Bxl esc (waterproof) with my 20t axial motor.

Or

Use the axial wraith Esc on the 20t motor.

Both with the BEC

Or pull my FXR and 45t motor and throw it in my build.
???????


Oh I bought paint today as well going to start that tomorrow and see how it goes

 

^^ I saw a video of someone using a traxxas vxl system in their wraith.. Seems like a great idea to me.

 

Yeah. But it doesn't have a Drag break on it.

 

Dam cluster of wires

 

Is it sad that I only come to TW for this thread?

 

This and the NorCal section!! Lol

 

A bit off topic, but as promised.

 

I have both a NiMH MRC charger but need to replace the buttons, I need to find someone locally who can solder the switches to the board, the charger cost me quite a bit (when new) so I don't want to simply throw it away since it works fine. I also have a simple Lipo Balance charger, but I would have to make sure the lipo battery pack I purchase have the same balance charger leads (I know there was a battery website which had the name of all the different connectors but can't remember, it was a long time ago)

I think if I buy it, I will buy a NiMh 4200 mah battery pack to start, and after getting up to date on whats new on Lipo packs, then get a new charger and 3 battery packs. (1 for practice, 1 for two qualifiers, 1 for main) and the NiMh as backup.

I will probably go to the hobby shop tomorrow, the owner is a nice guy and he helps me promote my forum, and I promote his Hobby Shop through it, and I'll have him check what the truck would cost here after S/H & tax as I prefer to buy it locally, I had purchased both my Jammin X1 and Hyper 9 from him, and both times the price was awesome.

the chargers



brand new custom painted body I never used



couple other bodies need to sell them or give away



poor mini t, not used in years, probably not worth anything by now
