The Ryft is badass. We built the kit.

Reckon I could find a kit since they don't make them anymore?

Doubtful. But maybe ebay might have some?

 

[WickedFog]

Oh, the Capra is on sale now for $100 off. That is a badass rig too. I would rather have that one personally.

Kit or RTR?

RTR. The idiots did away with the kit for that one too, or I'd already have one

I built the RC4WD Trail Finder 2 and put alot of $ into it. They really knickle and dime you and you end up paying way more in the end. Having a leaf sprung truck is cool and all, but in my opinion, you do not get what you pay for. The design isn't that great and the quality is hit or miss.

I just feel like the Capra or similar would basically be like what I have below..

You know we got your parts files for you when you finally break down and get one!

Yeah, and the crossmember for the Ryft

There is no comparison between that and a Capra(or anything else in that catagory).

We got more Ryft work to do... Anything we brew up, I will keep you in the loop. That front shock mounting system aggravates me to no end. I will get it sorted out.

Well I mean I know this Is way more faster than the Capra.

Just a couple differences, lol... way faster, independent front and rear suspension, fluid filled diffs, its a racing machine! I love Tekno. I have a SCT, 1/10 truggy, and a 1/10 MT from them. I so badly wanted to build a DB48 but never got around to it. I still may do it...

Yeah it was a fun build, I didn't build it to Race, Just wanted a U4 to just bash around

 

[BsudRC]

Ok if I get another I think I've settled on a Vanguish either Phoenix or Optic. And I may just go with RTR Just so I can stay on the budget side of things

I have built both of those. The Pheonix is cool because of the extra stuff you can do with the twin transmission. You can do rear dig, rear wheel drive, and underdrive if you have enough channels on your radio. Another plus is you can get the Tamiya driver figure that is meant for the clodbuster and it is a direct fit that you can paint and add some really nice realism to your rig.

I could probably add it to my Flysky that I have my TRX4 on. I think it's a 6ch. I also have a radio link but off top my head not sure the channels. I have my DB48 on that radio

 

[BsudRC]

What's difference between portal and straight axle?

 

[ferrebee88]

 

[BsudRC]

Ok what difference do they make?
