    So, finally put a lightbar prototype to work... turned the crawler into a fpv crawlspace crawler! The camera has 170° degree view with the video transmitter is a little 50mw tx.
    The light bar ended up being a little toooo bright! Kind of drowns out the entire middle of video image

    Put an over hang on the bottom of the light above the camera to block the glare

    It wasnt so much the light over the camera that was messing with the camera, it has to do with that bar being over 1400 lumens...and that much light in close range will wash just about any thing out!

    I use to frequent OCRC and loved the place. Huge seating area and track always maintained. Unfortunately I don't have time for it anymore. I just bash my Losi by a dam here in Fullerton.

    B4.2 out at the beach last weekend. paddle tires were a lot of fun :)

    [​IMG]

    was thinking about that the entire time I was sitting there watching the fireworks. even had the quad in the back of my truck in the parking lot :facepalm:

    may give it a shot next year. may take the boat out in Annapolis and watch from the water, which would make for an interesting perspective.

    As a pure race truck I would look into Durango. I must warn they don't take crashing or hits very well and most parts will have to be purchased online.
    I currently have the (kit)Losi SCT E. This thing is a tank. Very durable. Does very well during races & you can bash it as well.

    They are both kits so you'll need the electronics.
