    Dad found out today that his P-51 doesn’t really land well inverted.
    My uncle and cousin said that they got my timber dialed in on trim so now the only issue is only having 2 settings of flaps (off and Roughly 40%) but unfortunately due to weather and time I wasn’t able to fly this evening.

    Ordered the trx4 crawler kit to build with my son since he's doing well driving mine. Hoping to find an open top body for it (wrangler, bronco, blazer, scout, cruiser......).

    There will be crawler competitions in a couple months when we get it all put together.

    Anyone seen the "unbreakable" tacoma (2nd gen) body for the Xmaxx. $135 on ebay comes in 4 colors. Not sure how unbreakable it really is but it does have a warranty.

    Just took it out. This is my 1st real RC other than the minime crawler I built that tops out about 10mph. Never even been around any. I had no idea the power and speed these things can have. :eek:

    Well most ppl don't go from small scale to a UDR , and if you put in a 8s system it be even faster. I started with a 1/32 losi micro desert, and my last build was converting a 1/5 5B clone to a 950kv brushless motor. Its a good hobby but its like collecting patches you get one you like and then end up buying a whole lot more haha

    What exactly are you wanting to do with it. Axial Capra if you want another crawler.
