Motor 4068 2200kv 18t pinion

Sävox 20kg steering servo.
T-bone Universal front Bumper. Very good front protection

All diff oils and some bearings changed 2weeks ago.
Washed and silicone protected today.

I have not need change any parts , these 4-6s buggies 1/8 are bulletproof with only 3s.
He drives it pretty good also to be so young.
Got it from me (dad) i did drive RCs also decent from start almost.
All my friends crashed alot more who did try.
Some have this skills naturally.

Same with swimming, BMX bike , some handle it fast, some needs alot time and teaching.
And this does not matter, we are different, only important is that we learn it :) sooner or later, dont matter.

I'm happy my son love RC also. we will have alot fun in future.
3-4years more and the really fun begins. when he gets his first 6s rig from me and we can both bash really hard together :)

My son started 5years old with RC Crawler , Losi Night crawler.
Now 7 years old he drives 3s buggy 1/8 35mph well.
More is coming :)

Please tell about your kids and their rigs , and skills
Photos of the rig is huge bonus.
Fun to see

After Wash today and Silicone Spray and wipe.
Charging for New run. He have run it 3 packs today, Soon 4th.
I believe it will be 5-6 runs today

These Intechs are race buggies, awsome handling,. they are old and Canceled today.
Anyways a awsome great buggy still today. Durable also. And the best is that
all parts is still awaible locally, and parts are cheap also :)
We have not need change any parts yet luckyly

I did drive this self 5 years ago when i bought it brand new.
The car is in good condition because i have alot RC Cars, so i have run it only 16-20 times without crashing on 4s
and serve it well

That's awesome! My kids just wanna run em and not work on em so they get to drive the cheapo Amazon ones!! 😂 It's a great family thing to do though. This is from last year. Had the whole family up! Even my mom, wife and sister got in on the action! 😁
