Anyone into R/C?

1/32” lexan sheet from fleaBay.

 

Thanks that was the intended look just ended up needing a heavier coat than I wanted

 

Been a while since I messed with my rc stuff but here is my current situation on them. Sorting through old stuff and pitching/selling it. In the picture is a losi rock ray and axial bomber. Not pictured I have a wraith, traxxas trx4, and a zellos 36" catamaran boat.

 

Anyone been on rccrawler forum today? It seems to be down

 

It loads for me

 

So I started to notice my rc rolling back on when I let go of the throttle when I’m on an incline. It didn’t do it when I first built my truck. I’m a newb with troubleshooting rc’s still. I’m thinking it’s something with the esc. Or I might have to adjusted some of the settings now that everything is broken in.

I have a Reedy 1850kv brushed motor with the 1080 hobbywing esc. Thanks for any help.

 

It was out since this morning apparently, just came back on for me

 

Adjust your drag brake setting

 

or turn back throttle trim on the radio

 

Both of these. The HW1080 is likely the best brushed crawler ESC out there.

 

I watched this last night and made some adjustments to mine.

I would have to agree. I actually prefer it over my Tekin FXR

 

Thanks gents!!

 

Here's the last project Ive been putting together. It's still missing a couple details but it runs. Currently mostly goes in a circle with bald tires with a 950kv 200amp esc on 6s. I'm looking for recommendations on punch and brake settings. Currently have brakes at 50%. Here's how it was before picking it up and after

 

That looks fun! I’m ready to pull the trigger on a Kyosho scorpion or turbo scorpion, i cant decide. I want a vintage 2wd buggy.

 

2wd have a special kind of fun compared to 4wd's

 

A spinning uncontrollable type of fun? That’s what I’m expecting. Lol.

 

Finally getting everything back together!
Picked up some new batteries for the revo. When I put this Hobbywing system in this thing it blew up 3 batteries in 4 days. Haha.

Also replaced the bulkhead on the Xmaxx from the 30 foot jump carnage a few weeks ago.

Traded a stock TRX4 for that Traxxas rally car along with a brushless setup, never ran. Last thing is I picked up a bomber for my girlfriend. Feels good to have all my trucks running again!

 

Building my first RC. Just basic stuff to get started. Mostly trying to build a minime of my actual truck. 3D printed body parts kit by MFab. It's taking a long time to smooth out and assemble but it's getting there. Also had custom roof and bed racks printed ti match my truck. Mostly just test fitting but will come apart before final assembly and paint.

 

I appreciate the diversity in your collection. Have you run the rally car yet? They have been catching my eye recently. I imagine being a Traxxas, that one is pretty rugged?
