Bigbird Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 I still don't understand how you guys control those things, boggles my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPLN SUX Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 I still don't understand how you guys control those things, boggles my mind. its just feel... if that makes sense... I had a nitro RC10GT for a while that was easily faster than that. On a wide open track like that it'd easily been in the 50-60mph range no problem. once you figure out how to react to make corrections, its pretty easy. You can control them pretty radically in the air too, like dirt bikes. Throttle and brakes change the pitch pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run the electric cars now that are in the vid. It is crazy how much work can go into those little cars to get them to be fast. You should see the 4wd class and how quick those suckers are!

BradyPPC Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Thats pretty impressive. I cant even operate one of the walmart cheapo ones without running over my own foot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should see the 4wd class and how quick those suckers are! I had an electric and i just hated how there was never any battery life, i guess it could be because i put a brush less motor in mine! Wagner, if you know anyone that has a Tamya TT-01 Chassis, i found a set of if i remember rear sway bars from it, its got the blue and red( stiff and medium) they can have it if they want.

I will ask around but I don't run with the on-road crowd to much. I might take them off your hands for a little custm project of mine. Right now I want to do some testing on one of my cars with sway bars and these might work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomZoom6 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Waggs I thought you were completely out of the hobby as far as racing goes?! I didn't realize you stuck with electric, did you convert it from nitro (I know you sold Keith a few nitro parts)? If I don't buy another I plan on converting my buggy to electric for indoor. It's a fun hobby, here's one of mine... http://i42.tinypic.com/23m54sg.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff I sold keith was from when I ran 1/8th scale, heck I have more of that stuff I need to sell! After this weekend I am going to try and get my 4wd back together and come out to Road Runner and play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GonneVille Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I've been out to the last few races at the winter track, never got to run because of huge snafus with batteries. Been beating the crap outta my HPI Savage Flux ever since the batteries got straightened out, though. If I can get a couple more sets, I might actually race the MT class, assuming there's one left by then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
