If you buy one, you are hereby obligated to come back here with pics, vids, and every relevant thoughts running through your mind about how it performs, how it looks, and how much your heart started pumping when you opened the box.

The only negative I see about this truck is there is not much you can do to it that hasn't been done before you buy it. Mostly just wheels and tires. Completley a bad ass mini crawler though. I need a bigger rc budget.

I look at it this way. Look at all the cool parts you get for that money. Mix and match. Much cheaper than buying the parts individually. I am still waiting for the 6x6 to return.

I know a guy looking to buy souls! Bonus for any referrals that work out positively if yours isn't available. Cash paid.

No thanks. I prefer to buy junk and then spend way too much upgrading it, to get it to preform only slightly better.


Jk

But is that really a joke because I'm pretty sure that's what were all doing lmfao

Sometimes I guess. They aren't all junk though.

Way to wreck my joke

I broke down and ordered one from Amain Hobbies.

The Cayman Pro V2 is currently on sale there for $314.49 and there is a $30 discount off of a $350 order of eligible items. Every other place that I checked was selling them for $369.99. I am a sucker for a good deal.

All of the LiPos are ineligible unfortunately. So I also ordered a Reefs servo and a Reefs aluminum servo horn to get over the $350 minimum. The brass Reefs servo is currently on backorder or I would have ordered that. Many brands are excluded from the discount.

I ordered a Furitek aluminum servo horn to try with the stock servo before I install the Reefs. With all of the metal parts that come stock, I am surprised that Furitek put on a white plastic servo horn. Those are fine on my planes, but not on this beauty.

I will be adding silver aluminum body shocks when I figure out what length to get. I believe that the stock shocks have plastic bodies with aluminum caps.

The springs are for one of my TRX-4Ms. The JST extension is to hook up a toggle switch between the battery and the ESC. I did this mod on both of my TRX-4Ms and it is nice to not have to plug in and unplug the battery every time. The added resistance of the switch is not noticeable when driving them.

I hope I ordered all the right stuff. I like to run at least 3S with my brushless cars.
