Would be wicked if they actually made it a rollback car hauler. But still cool!

Steel string. looks badass. I may move on to the minis. 1/10 is lacking it seems.

I really want that Furitek equipped CR18 that Doom has. Pretty cool truck.

Hey, look, a winch!!!

 

[WickedFog]

I just got the email from Heli Direct. Funny how the 1/18 scale trucks actually look small on it. So now I'm thinking this is likely closer to 1/24 scale, and I kinda want one!

Hey, look, a winch!!!

Yeah, but since it's not a rollback... what's it for?

 

[Tunedfrog]

Great looking rig. What scale is it, I may have missed it?

 

[Doom!]

1/18 ish

 

[Tunedfrog]

I figured as much. Very cool rig regardless.

 

[WickedFog]

It looks a lot more like 1/24 to me, considering it's a cab-over. And if you look at the pic I posted, doesn't it look like that 1/18 on the back is a lot bigger scale? I bet an SCX24 would look perfect on it.

 

[Doom!]

There is a very blurry line between 1/24 and 1/18 in RC's, that's for sure.

 

[WickedFog]

Yeah there is. I don't even think the SCX24 is a true 1/24. Closer to 1/22 I believe when I was checking dimensions on the C10.

 

[WickedFog]

I figured out what the winch is for on this. This truck has built in ramps

Now I really want one.

And here it is with a 24th scaler on it.

 

[Jonas]

Sweeet I’m drooling now.lol

 

[CertifiedMike]

Ok, I need to talk to someone about airbrushing me a few extra hundred$$$ for one of these!
I feel like this has the potential to be converted to a working roll-back. WAY COOL BUILD waiting to happen here!!!

 

[WickedFog]

By the way... SCX24's don't pull. Worm gears in axles won't let that happen. So you'll have to break out your imagination and pretend to winch one onto the truck

 

[CertifiedMike]

You like to steal my dreams, don't you?!?!!!!

 

[WickedFog]

You like to steal my dreams, don't you?!?!!!!

Well, you could always take the wheel hexes out while you load it. But then you'll have to pretend some big giant hand didn't swoop in, take the truck away, and do an operation on it

 

[CertifiedMike]

Lol! A giant hand or a wicked fog... still slapped in the face!
I don't suppose there's a 1/18ish scale fully operational driver availible with this rig?
