Ramp for Jumping

[typhkc]

Currently is there a ramp specifically designed for RC use on the market? I want something light weight, easy to move, and all in one piece. How much money also do people spend on these? If i tried to build one it was going to cost me around 50 bucks + the pain to doing so. Let me know of any simple ramps available.. THanks

I know a few people have purchased BMX ramps for around $40. Toy R' Us is a good place to find them. Maybe Wal-Mart or even Meijers might carry em. Also if you do a search you should find some info on the site.

These are not specifically for RC's but this is where I got the plans to make my launch ramp you will see used in my MiniT vid I am working on right now.

That's so tinie tiny though, that's a ramp for my Barbie Corvette RC.

yeah, a couple more inches if height or a shorter lauch pad would really increase the distance and height of the jump. But i bet if you hit that FACTOR X ramp at 40mph you would sail..

Or even something like this would be more fitting

Believe me I jump a lot and feel like I have good control of my vehicles but at 40mph as you say its real hard to hit a 2ft wide ramp, just food for thought
