Anyone into R/C?

Spray down with some SuperClean and let it soak a few minutes. Then rinse thoroughly.

 

I was close to using the simple green but i think it is about gone at this point with the cowrc chassis wash stuff... i dont follow their directions and leave it/ blow it dry though. I rinse lightly and repeat then blow it dry and run it to make sure water is not sitting anywhere.

 

The purple super clean degreaser is very aggressive. I'd be careful with that stuff. Maybe dilute it in half?

 

Must have sprayed a bit heavier on the body as the doors and tailgate are a bit too light in comparison. Happy with the color choice though and need to go grab another can to fix my error. Overall this build is going well. I should have it mostly done by the end of the week after I return from a road trip with the wife's aunt. Happy 4th to all of yall

 

Built a dual rider with my nephew this weekend, got it running today with a 1080 and an old axial radio. Then i saw the dancing rider back in stock so ordered one of those. Can’t have just one. I think the fun in the trike is having two to race against each other. Haha. I was impressed the 1080 can be used when setup right without drag brake and have instant reverse. Also ordered a Ryft kit…and another money pit.

 

Those trikes are a ton of fun. You are right about being more fun with a second one for someone else... The most recent comp build I did left me with a bunch of leftover stuff from the previous comp build that I put it on an rtr radio setup for someone to join me....

 

Will be listing a few trucks for sale if anyone is interested.

Arrma Granite BLX
Arrma Mojave 6s With Max6 Combo

Traxxas Maxx

 

Having my nephews for a month is a good excuse to get more toys…. The mini-B with a Surpass brushless system rips! If your going to do the conversion, just go ahead and order extra sets of rear tires too.

 

My GEN8 AXE Edition is almost finished. A few more brass goodies and I'm there.

 

My daughter and I are looking at Jeep Crawlers but $500 just to start is a lot of $

 

Want my axial wrath?!? $350 unassembled. Never used. I was going to paint it. Never did. Never put it together

 

I apologize if this has already been asked in here. I'm interested in getting into a beginner rc. Not looking to build anything, I'm interested in a ready to go rc. Top speed of about 20mph. Durable. I'm guessing 4wd as it would be run both on and off the street, I have a ditch thatd be fun to run in. Price range... say about 200$ max, less would make wife approval easier
Thank you in advance

 

I can't recommend anything in that range really

 

Sad but true.

Your going to spend at least twice that for a decent 1/10 SCT or buggy. Plus batteries and a charger set up. And this is where it starts.

 

Not a big enough budget?

 

ECX Amp MT.

 

I'd hesitate to suggest anything less than 400 with batteries and charger. Look at arrma and the granite/senton for a solid first car

 

Anyone in the market for a Maxx or Kraton EXB roller?

 

A little update to the stock Honcho body.

Just getting into RC crawling so I picked up a TRX-4 Sport and I've been doing my best to make a replica of my 2004. Enjoying the shit out of it so far.




It's a Pro-Line 3520 Builder Series if anyone is curious. Body is closer to a second gen but I think it works well enough.
