Hi, any RC fans here! ... so what do u have? i just bought a Black E-Revo 1/16 brushless!!! your share?
has nothing to do with age ! if u dont like RC then why bother to reply increasing post count i see!!! M.
Dude that's a sweet RC car. I used to have 2 cars one was an off-road something that I bashed into a rock. The other was a Viper (when viper's first came out) it was so sweet until I hit a sewer grate and smashed the wheel off and couldn't find the replacement part. Anyway, what's those things cost now-a-days anyway?
i got this for a steal on eBay, ... $249 + shipping! its a 4WD, goes upto 50mph on 2 batteries! but i have seen youtube vids of taking it upto 80mph! ive had various choppers, picozee being my first, this is my first off-roader!
Cool man. Have you driven it yet? Looks like a sweet ride that i'd love to rip around with for a while.
yep, hyper sensitive! ... getting the hang of things, will make a youtube vid out of it next week or something!
i used to know a guy that did them kit cars or whatever you call them, some with proper wee i think petrol engines. madness, fast as fook aswell.
i think u mean nitro engines? ... yeah those are crazy cars... real power! but nitro is something not readily available and an expensive affair here!!! M.
yeah,... this one is a electric,.... a brushless electric,... not a techie myself, but from what i read on the net,... brushless rocks! ... less maintainence, more power, and long life! (vs the brushed motor) M.
I used to be huge into RC cars, I had a duratrax evader stadium truck, and I was going to get a traxxas rustler but then lost the motivation, was sick of spending the money fixing things cause i would always ramp the things way to high and over use them.
yeah.... about stuff breaking.... the reason i stopped myself from flying choppers and came down to cars... perhaps stuff would break less here,... and perhaps the only things that break would be car parts themselves. M.
I used to own a HPI RS4, Tamiya Mini Cooper, and a few offroad buggies, all electric. The hobby is just so expensive though so I eventually gave it up. I actually raced the Mini Cooper at an indoor track one time. I had a corvette shell on the HPI it looked hot and the car was quick!
Out of curiosity did you have to put this one together? I remember my first one took soooo long to put together because I wanted it to be perfect adn after realized that I spent 1 month of building rather than driving... lol
RC woohoo! I'm an RC nutcase too Electric all the way. I'm into micro scale cars (1:28ish/Mini-Z especially), and electric planes. I've got a room full of RC junk. I've collected an embarrassing amount of Kyosho Z stuff, misc Mini-T/Micro-T stuff... and a (big) handful of planes. @ msolution - I hope you've got deep pockets. The RC bug bites hard and never lets go You've got into it at a good time too. Things are cheaper than they've ever been. Check out hobbyking.com for batteries, chargers, misc electronics etc. they've got insanely good prices.
yeah,... it came as a "ready to run" thing, just put some batteries in, and ride away! @Kerosene - thats quite a collection of cars!!! - not sure about my pockets though, but i will have a big credit card bill coming next month, with the kind of hop ups im buying
I got this one for my kid last week, unfortunately for him I play it more than him Any one can give me a good speed boat model so I can buy it and compete with my son ?
