newbie question

[nitromidget]

i just thought of it while watchin some bashin vids, when you rc vehicle flips over onto its back is it a bad thing, like a running measure where you run to flip it back over or a laughing masure where you and your friend just point and laugh at you rc car for a really brutal jump

and one more thing this is the web site these vids were at http://www.slapmafro.com/publicmovies.html look at the 3rd one down calles farmbash 5 i wanna know what type of stadium truck is the one that is red and white, second car shown

It really aint a bad thing until you start breakin sh!t. But stuff will happen when you get crazy like those dudes was. Pretty cool website.

 

[nitromidget]

gutterboy do you know what truck that waas

 

[pissant]

i can't get the videos to work, it goes to a page wtih just numbers and letters. i downloaded the new media player, now what?

 

[nitromidget]

try it

 

[Çh®i§tiªñ]

looks like an RC10 to me (based on the chassis) but I could be wrong.

 

[pissant]

i did and still nothing what am i doing wrong

 

[gutterboy]

Not really sure what it is but Christian is probably right. I can't make it out because my computer here at work is on the fritz and everything I see is kinda fuzzy. Whatever it is it can take a beatn.

 

[pissant]

i saved it to my harddrive and still nothing, i opened it up in windows media player and it says corrupt. wtf8-0 8-0 8-0 8-0 8-0

Yeah, the red-and-white one is an old tub-chassis RC10GT with an O.S. .12 CV-R engine.

 

[nitromidget]

thanxs you guys

 

[nitromidget]

whats a tub chassis, is that what makes it soo strong

and one more thing will the xxx-nt go as fast as the the red-and-white old tub-chassis RC10GT with an O.S. .12 CV-R engine.

the ready to run version

 

[doesgo]

The tub chassis is the old design, but it seems to have held up to more abuse than my friend's pan chassis truck. Not sure why, maybe that blue Trinity brace really helped a lot.

Here's a pic of the tub and one of a pan:

No idea how fast the RTR XXX-NT is, but I'd bet it's not as fast as a .12 CV-R stadium truck. Generally RTR engines aren't that powerful. It's the engine that makes the difference, not the truck. At least not when comparing XXX-NT vs RC10GT.

For even more power, go with a Fantom .12 or a Wasp .12. "Deadly Thrashings" on www.slapmafro.com shows my XXX-NT with a Wasp 12 flipping itself over on its lid from a dead stop...and even from a roll. That was a fun engine!

 

[nitromidget]

you only broke a front axle !!!!! thats crazy what type of xxx-nt do you have and how much did it cost to fix that axle yours was the blue and white one right

 

[doesgo]

Just bent an axle, yes. I think it cost $5 for a pair of them.

Yep, the blue-and-white one doing the wheelies is the one. Tough truck!

 

[nitromidget]

cool and have you had any other problems and what do you reccomend replacing right at the start when buying the rtr sport version and what type do you have and where did you get your wasp

 

[doesgo]

I didn't have any other problems, but I don't have it any longer, unfortunately. I really didn't get enough experience with it to say what its weak points are, but I beat on it enough to prove there really aren't too many!

I got the truck used, and the Wasp came with it. This is the Wasp that was on it:
