How do you carry your RCs?

[The_RC_Dude]

Trucks were made to be jumped. I tried jumping my house before. Long story short she tore into the garage and into the air compressor.

Yes...jumping in your house? I tried jumping one or two times before indoors, not that fun. I have smaller scale RCs so it's easier, but you can't go fast, it's just no fun! However, I did find something more interesting to do in the house, you can run your RCs on a treadmill (crank the speed up gradually so it gets harder, once you master that, have someone else drive another RC on the treadmill with yours, preferably smaller scale RCs), or I can set up my curved cardboard ramp against the coffee table at a very steep angle, and backflip off the ramp onto carpet! I might do a post on both of these activities, with video!

Hold on, you mean your RC flew into the garage, and damaged your air compressor? What kind of RC were you driving?

I tried jumping the roof. Driveway too short and angled. On the air compressor hit I started in the neighbors driveway but the curb through me off more. I hit their ramp and flew into the garage. Missed both 450s and pinged the air compressor.
Standing craftsman compressor, pretty sure it was my Traxxas stampede, maybe it was the bandit. Nothing broke.

I've done the treadmill before. On old nikkos I poured water on the tile to get it to spin around.

Throwing them in the back of the truck test whether or not they can handle a good bash. If it can't handle the toss in the truck, it damn sure isn't going to handle some of the stuff I put them through.

It's just not good form to go throwing crawlers everywhere!

If its an scx10 ii it can take it. I've been drifting around rwd bouncing off crates on the daily for atleast 4 weeks. I just got 2 wheels wedged between the rail and grid flooring on a ramp. I'm impressed with the quality.

You could also make a mud pillow to land on.

My crawlers are for my calm time, my Mojave is for thrashing!

Just a figure of speech guys, I didn't mean it. In all honesty it's true though, if it can't handle a toss in the truck, it definitely isn't going to handle a good bash.
I baby my crawlers more than my kids.

So you used a giant ramp, and tried to clear the whole house from your driveway, or did you jump off the roof, onto a ramp? Can't quite picture what happened on the air compressor accident, but your neighbors had a ramp out too, and 2 Ford 450s in their garage? That's a big garage!

I got the idea for the treadmill from one of the members one here, I can't remember who, but they made a post on it with their Mini E-Revo I think. If you're gonna do some "drifting", just wrap the tires with painters tape or something, a lot less messy, and works pretty well too!

I purchased a 30” rolling duffel bag with eight pockets from Amazon, it fits my 4x4 Slash VXL, multiple tires, tools, controller, spare parts, a work mat, battery charger and a stand. Works great and cheaper than the pit bags. Batteries in a separate lipo bag.

Sounds like you've got a whole mini rolling hobby shop in there, lol!
