Anyone into R/C?

Have you tried RPP Hobby or A-Main?

 

Have you run this much yet? Curious as to how it does, the ones in the Traxxas videos appear sprung a little heavy, bouncing a bit and not flexing very well.

 

I did, they only had the ends or the lipo balance wires. I found one on eBay finally.

 

It is pretty top heavy. I'm hoping the that the brass samix parts provide enough un-sprung weight in the front.
I think that the extra weight should help with the bounciness.
It's no match for my Wraith but it's not bad.

 

How are the links? I am about to get some but the 12.3 length for my power wagon body. I might go with the incision stainless ones. Titanium is nice but I am not that ballin.

 

I have titanium on my wraith as well. They seem to hold up well. Vanquish I think.

 

First attempt at painting an RC body. Used the Performix Camo Tan plastidip.

 

Nice. I haven't seen the Brotherhood of Nod emblem in quite a while.

 

It takes a special brand of nerd to know what that emblem is.

 

What you guys running for batteries? I have traxxas ones for my trx4 and Revo. Not worried about the crawler but my revo I am looking to upgrade. I checked out maxx amps but the price is so crazy and the reviews just do not seem to warrant the cost.

 

Anyone looking to possibly trade shocks? These are 100mm gmade RSD piggyback shocks. They haven’t been ran very much as I’m only able to go crawling a few times a year. Freshly rebuilt and will come with a brand new pack of 2 of these shocks that are un built. Looking for 90-100mm shocks as trade.

 

I use Helios RC batteries. Made by him and really great battery so far. Google it.

 

I use onyx or venom. Also got a zeee from Amazon it seems good

 

I run the cheap Flouren or WE they’re called from fleaBay. The ones with a bull on them. I haven’t had any puff up or drop a cell yet. I have one Turnigy that’s a 3s and it’s been good to me.

 

mmmm I will have to make my mind up and try something new.

 

How long have you had them j read mixed reviews so I chose the zeee battery. The zee is ok but haven't used it enough to recommend it. Venom is good but pricey, onyx has been just as good with a good price.

 

Here's my battery collection, I haven't used the 3s batteries yet. I got the 7200mah 3s locally, a guy has them for $50 cash not a bad deal

 

I use them very limited compared to others. So I keep them at a storage charge until I need them and I’ll balance charge them back up. They’ve worked every time this far.

 

Thank you. I like it when someone calls me special.

 

I just use Venom 2s with the multi-plugs for now. I swap them between my TRX-4 and my Wraith. Haven't used 3s yet.
I won't buy another Traxxas battery. Don't want to buy their charger since the adapters are no longer available.
