Anyone into R/C?

Jesus

 

Looks like my tmaxx and scx10 together

 

I have been RCing for about 20 years and bought this GT2 just before they were discontinued and don't drive it to much so I can hold onto it for a very long time. I think the two wheel drive stadium trucks are the most fun to drive but they have gone out of style.

They are making a comeback around the Dallas area. The big tracks are running the class again if there is enough to make one.

 

Thats Good! All the classes here died off and it is mostly indoor carpet electric cars and trucks. I might have to get an electric but I really just like messing around with the nitro engines.

 

Raced on friday! Had a lot of fun so I'll be going back on fridays as much as i could.

 

MJ, I'm dying out here without a racetrack nearby anymore. got spoiled in TX, with 4 tracks within an hours drive, and two within a 20 minute drive
you need to keep racing, and post your videos, so I can live my rc racing life vicariously through you

 

lol i definitely will. I stopped racing for a while and I started to miss it! Im doing pretty well so I'm pumped to get back into it. I'll post updates here lol

this is from last Friday (Halloween) lol

 

Well I ordered new transmission gears for my wraith. It's been down for a while because of a stripped idler gear.

 

ahh, I can smell the moist clay and nitro fumes in the air

 

Finally got in a little RC wrenching time last night. after putting the castle creations in the twin hammers a couple of months ago, back in Texas, I stripped a gear in the transmission. finally got it rebuilt and fully back together last night.

Next project is to get my new hex-copter up and running. all I need to do is program it, as it's 99% assembled. currently just an expensive paperweight though


not sure why my cell phone is taking such grainy, off-color photos recently.

 

those things look fun lol i want to get just the regular sized yeti but jeeze those things are expensive lol I need something that i can run where ever I want. Cant really run my race rigs in my back yard or in the street lol

 

Had to break out the soldering station for the first time in a long time, ordered 2 new batterys for the yeti. Seriously took awhile to remember what I was doing...

 

That's awesome!

Any thoughts in that new wraith body?

 

picked up this little fella today. a local track is making a U4 course. should be fun

 

Nice!

I ran my yeti xl the other day, it's a monster, definitely needing some kinda strut bar, any kinda throttle and front right wheel is off the ground. So far love it!

 

rear swaybar. it's from the solid axle. my twin hammers does the same thing with the brushless. I kinda like it though

 

The problem is the rear swaybar would kill the TH's beautiful articulation, something the Yeti is lacking because of the swaybar.

 

My wraith is alive, aaaaaand it's -25.

 

Its -25 over there? Jesus, its only november.

You dont find the Tx a little hard to operate with mitts on?
