Did some test runs @home.. real fun..

http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o...h_S5031252.jpg


Then it was premier outside...my experince with the BL minzilla was bad..that one hold up for 2! trottles and then i rosted the tranny...even maxed shimmed...how was this tiny car hold up?

Im impressed..ok, there was some slipper on the gears, but aint much, and i could go on and run my second pack, but the car hasnt any BB so al plastic begaun to melt :D...damn it was slow on lowend...:D:D

Did found a real nice spot, some "stones/sand" when ya have plants..brown "bullets" dont know the eng word, but here it is "Leka"...say 15-20x20m big, with diff hights...and 3x5 big "lake"..this stones floating around, on the fgroundest 15cm deep, i could surf it, on medium trottle to high..real FUN...

but im a ARSE...going out slow, and was thinking to "burn some rubbe"..yeah...

http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o...0080718363.jpg

there was no problem, the car held up, and i did get hold on it with a long stick..but was i nervous or what :;D

alfred 07-19-2008 06:19 PM

Are you a flashlight freak as well.:D

Thomas P 07-20-2008 01:22 AM

Maybe i should make it more "crawler" ? but still have the BL setup..but maybe some longer links,diff shocks and mount the servo on the front tranny?

any ideas?

alfred 07-20-2008 08:50 AM

Thomas P 07-20-2008 09:11 AM

OK, thanks for that Alfred, im looking for parts..found that HBX have this one to..so does Kyosho (Mirage)...i think i can find some parts..Ballbearing are on the way, they will be heavy shimmed, maybe Spool "Like"..im not sure yet :)

alfred 07-20-2008 09:21 AM
