I have now watched countless hours of mind blowing scale rc footage, class 0 footage, and class 1 footage. Then spent an unreasonable amount of time researching and considering what makes for a good vehicle to participate in this genre of the hobby.....then bargain shopped, couponed, and spent an entirely reasonable amount of money...again...

For scale realism I failed immediately. I don't buy brand new vehicles, and if I did, there would definitely be a monthly payment, but I did not put this on my cc to get the scale points for that. Smh....I will do better going forward.

Congrats!!!
 
Thank you...got some fun new ideas going with this. Took a first test run today, all is going according my evil plans atm....muwahahaha
I am a total crawler noob. Which truck is this?
I love the body!!!
 
I've only named one of mine also.
Redcat Wendigo that earned the name "Class Clown" because it's usually doing something entertainingly stupid on its way to upside down! 🤪
Good stuff...not normally something I do...but there is a purpose behind it to be revealed soon enough
 
Can't wait to see what you do with it. The Trailrunner is a fun trail truck. I love watching the IFS work.

Build for mine can be seen HERE.
 
This is a Element Enduro Trailrunner. Got kind of a almost 4runner thing going on.

Coolness!!! I like the newer Toyota front ends.(since they stopped using the one from 1980 anyways)
I thought it was a Tacoma.

Looks like it runs well as is!

I'm not a Toyota guy, there is a nice looking bronco hardbody that might go on there at some point. If I could find a nice fseries pickup that is another possibility. For now, it's unlicensed, so I can get away with addressing it as a "FordRunner" suv.

Is this the one where you get up for a snack after you finish building the transmission and thats where it ends? 🤣

I have 3 threads like that. :rolleyes:
 
Part 2, and a link in the comments to the app mention in the video. Because youtube won't let me include clickable links in the description....but putting them in the comments is fine...so there is that.

Hey now, I finished this one!
@doom did you get a newer production model with the flysky 2n1, or the old stock like mine with xp130 and sc280x ?
I bought mine when they first came out, so mine is old stock.

I'm glad I have the old radio with separated esc, rx....this 2 in1 in everything is not something I'm into unless we are talking like 1/24s. In a 1/10 there is more than enough room for both.
