Looks cool but you will be pulling those shocks off soon. Especially if you try the Losi shocks. I had those shocks and ran them once and pulled them right back off.
 
yeah i told him integy sucks. but he just didnt listen lol

wich losi shocks are you talking about? I'm thinking about maybe buying this from my uncle. also what would be some good electronics that i could go with? that arent too expensive?
 
If your going to compete you will have to loose the rear steer too, as for electronics you could go with a cc sidewinder esc with a integy lathe motor 45-55 turn and if you plan on adding dig to it then you will want a decent 3ch radio....
 
sounds expensive

Oh it can be, you could go the route I went for now and get a $40 esc and the motors are only $20 bucks, then just a cheap 2ch pistol grip radio and your ready to crawl, oh and a battery 6 cell saddle pack for like $20 some saddle pack axle mounts for $5 and your ready, wait and a battery charger if you don't have one, wow this is getting expensive LOL!!!!!!
 
yeah lol it will be a while before i can buy any of that stuff i guess ill have to wait and see if he still has it after christmas. do you think its worth $500 how it is now?

Nope, for 500.00 you can build a nice rtr rig, to many bling, bling, parts on it. IMO.
 
ok maybe if he loves me enough he will give it to me for christmas lol i am his favorite nephew (lol not really)
 
I'm about 500 deep in mine and i got some very good parts

i say u could get about 250 or 275

i would have did a few thing different but its not mine
 
it was first rc and his friend just told him to buy all of this stuff and so he did.

hes not really rc smart
 
i told him not to buy the integy crap lol he is $700 dollars into it and not much accomplished
 
700 just for that roller u posted pictures of .....damn the back luck
 
yeah lol i would have just bought the kit and electronics and go from there. but he decided to get all that crap first
 
i give him full props for making it custum to his liking, thats one of the main perks to this hobby imo....not everyone competes so if thats not a priority then i think its a pretty sweet rig and it definatly looks cool.

Who asked you pinto boy... lol jk I agree. Making it your own is one big part of rock crawling for sure.
