Thanks Charlie!

Nothing new yet but I got it some what clean again, it was caked in mud over the weekend.
Waiting on a couple parts, air filter outerwear, show tower braces and a Killer Rc rear turnbuckle kit...

I 100% recomend this rig to anyone wanting a 1/5th scale but not being able to afford the HPI name. I have zero regrets about it, would do it again.

Next thing I might be is a pull rope handle, this one has a sharp ring on the bottom that cuts the poop out of my finger...might just sand it down though...

Thanks hamz, been glued there for the last few days....Need more money...
 
Luckily I'm barely a third into what I would invest into a crawler, so I'm real happy about that...
 
Check out the sale forums for hop up parts. People are always upgrading and dropping nice stuff for sale.
 
I seen mine on its top for the first time Sunday, Got her tuned in though, i didn't think they would have this much GITTY UP!!
 
I know some parts will break if you were to beat it and run it hard, but anything break sooner than expected?
I see myself leaning more towards 1/5 scale vs. a scale project as a grad gift to myself.
 
I've got two tanks through it with 0 problems but I dont for see anything braking without some sold wrecks, its real beefy.


Got my tower braces on, air filter outer wear and also a new choke lever.

You may want to replace the spring on the throttle linkage with a piece of fuel tubing. It will provide more solid braking.
 
Thanks Rob ;)

I dont like the white body at all, might hit it with some black...
 
I was thinking that same thing.
 
Better than white...:D
