Anyone into R/C?

I love the look of that truck. Awesome RC's, man.

 

I think I may have found myself a new hobby

Question is, should I spend $500 on a Prinsu Rack or $500 on an RC Rock Crawler...

(I really like the Axial SCX10 II with the Land Cruiser LC70 Body painted in quicksand)

 

Rc cars can be just as expensive to build .. my slash 4x4 has about 500$ into apart from the 500 it cost me , but my shit is fast when i run it on a 5C battery .. its on a 1/8 scale motor

 

i have to admit thou jumping shit is fun

 

Until you break shit and have to work half a day fixing it.

 

Well im lucky hobby shop a few blocks away and parts are only a few $ plus if it breaks i fix it at work...

I do t think anything is stock on mine

 

This is what happens when you are running a 6C battery and lock up the brakes a full speed

 

I went thru 10 of them before i went back to a 5C then a 3C... also a word of advise do not mount a go pro on top and drive it to the corner where the cops have some one pulled over , they dont like that shit

 

axial is sending me new electronics for the yeti jr. doubt it will last long but props to them for such good service. not even sure its worth the work to not swap new stuff in.

I hear that. I have over 2 grand into my 5th scales before I even started adding mods.
Won't mention my other R/Cs. $$$$$

 

Just got this Month old, metal links charger battery and extra unpainted body. FREE

 

That's awesome. Where are these laying around

 

So I decided to mod the Mini 8ight-t a bit. Bought an Exotek big bore motor mount, Traxxas VXL motor, some different gearing combos etc. Also a few other small things for it. Anyways, here is the truck with the motor mounted. You can even still see it with the body on, which is pretty cool.

 

Tested out the proline hyrax. Liking them better than the Rock beast so far I think

 

Do you want a cheap motor or expensive one? Lol holmes hobbies motors are awesome... i have one of his 540t crawlmaster pro motors

 

For 160you can have the best waterproof ESC on the market with the holmes hold drag brake and a 35t crawler motor. Or just get 2 crawler motors and have the extra

 

Holmes just makes a great esc... the drag brake is like no other. It will hold something on a 60* angle like nothing

 

Anything more than that and the truck is probably flipping lol

 

I like my Holmes motor
