    Do any of you guys have a picture of how you are attaching the ground anchors to the gear keeper? Trying to figure out the best way to do that.

    The Gearkeeper had a plastic ball at the end of the cable. I took that off and just tied a simple knot on the treble hook (right side in pic below)

    Yes, tied directly to the hook on the gear keeper. The servo winch I have a small hook that I can clip the treble hook to.

    Mind = blown. Saw this and immediately went into the garage and attached some fishing tackle to one of these and it's ridiculous how well it works!

    Took the family to Georgetown last weekend for my wife’s B day. Went for a long hike down the San Gabriel river. Trucks? Sure, why not

    Another year on the sponsor list, 2020 is kicking off nice. Dropped everything off with Craig this afternoon.

    @Tundra2Play I wanna see about getting lanyards made and maybe some more hoodies or shirts as its going to get warm soon.

    Finally got a servo installed and this TT02 is insanely fast even on a 2S battery. Still need to figure out how to mount a body securely that won't require cutting holes.

    Need an MK2 to round out the fleet

    i honestly think that she may enjoy the challenge of a RWD and the bragging rights if she can do it... But if you are willing to let me borrow it that would be sweet! Ill replace anything that breaks obviously.
