Anyone into R/C?

Well, had some time to kill today, got the kit all built up and body trimmed. Car is done and tested, the wr blue paint should be here this week so I can get the body painted.

 

I like it.

 

so after much discussion with the wife and she agreed to let me purchase something to have fun with in my backyard.. i live on an acre of land and the back is all dirt/rocks. i will most likely be building a small track as well

Way better than that tacon or whatever it was u posted in the az thread.

 

tenbeers is selling his (identical) if you dont mind something used, thats cheaper with extras.

so im still looking for a 2.4ghz radio, any one tried those cheaper $20-$30 radios ?

 

Thanks, psycho. Yes, mine is for sale and set up nicely. This truck needs the anti-sway bar to handle properly, so if you get one without it, that should be your first upgrade.

I have it posted over on RCTech, dropped the price a couple times. I could sell it as a roller or as a RTR setup with radio, and I have a charger and some batteries. Hoping to sell at least one of the vehicles before letting go of the charger and radio -- that way I can still drive the other one if it doesn't sell.

 

searching rctech ....
need radio

no problem tenbeers. I personally prefer kinda used with extras then buying new

 

i was doing so research and i did find out about getting the anti-sway bar so i think im going to look into getting one right away

 

Probably gonna sell my mini e revo brushless, got about 550 in it with extra parts and upgrades ( and batteries/chargers)

Y'all think 250 is reasonable to ask?

(I'm selling local only)

 

a used stock brushless mini revo with minimal extras would go for 250....

 

So how much should I put on it?

For upgrades I've only got dual servos and both connectors for running dual batteries (run time or double voltage), but I have an extra motor miscellaneous extra parts, 2 sets of wheels and tires, 5 batteries and a pair of quick chargers (one is overpowered for my batteries though and will be given to a friend most likely)

 

that's what you mean, I was thinking like rpm upgrades or fancy parts.I once got a mini vxl slash for 225 used in good conditon, two batteries/ one lipo, some rpm parts installed w/stock parts also, some aluminum traxxas parts. It had a am radio tho but had a charger. Maybe 250 is a good price to ask for? keep in mind a mini revo usually sales for more then a mini slash. where the ppl on here with the expertise

 

I Wish I would have put some RPM parts on it, I just didn't break it enough to be worth it

 

yea im a firm believer on dont upgrade until you break it. But got lucky and got pretty much nib 2wd slash with rpm arms and aluminum parts . just looking for a radio for it :/

 

If this stuff sells, I'll be posting the batteries, charger and radio. It's a Spektrum DX3C if you are interested.

 

i need to start planning out a track. i love having tons of land and nothing to do with it

 

it should also bind with a spektrum receiver from losi I have right?
I also bumped your thread and said you still have it, seems like you have ppl interested you should give it a look

 

Thanks, yeah, one guy wants the motor+ESC out of the truck, so if he goes for that I will sell the truck as a roller. That means I will also pull the receiver.

The radio I have should bind with your Spektrum receiver just fine. What model receiver do you have?

 

its a mrx 3000, im debating on buying that losi 2.4 on rctech im not sure if itll bind because its older?

 

Hmm, I have no clue -- I come from the day when you had to have matching crystals, and frequency crossover could make you glitch.
