I ran one of my little micro-b’s in the basement earlier with our youngest dog. Snapped this photo, little thing is looking right back at me! lol
I've gotta get one and make a trailer for it to haul it to the kitchen "track" with an SCX24 lol. But does anybody else think the wheels/tires are way too small?

I think for its size, the tire size works very well in keeping the cog low and the little rig stable.
I've got SCX24 tires/wheels on one of the micro b and it can't handle the full turn on high speed, just flips.

Yeah, those are a tad too big. And floppy.

I was just thinking they don't look proportional to the 1/10 wheels/tires.
 
Took the Kaiju EXT out today since it was pretty warm… the Surpass Hobby 4292 1780kv motor packs some punch. Little over geared, gonna drop it a tooth on the pinion. But, it was so torquey, I managed to snap the motor mount screws clean off inside the can while I was running. I have a couple more mounting holes I can try and hopefully this doesn’t become a common occurrence with this motor šŸ˜‚

My gensacearespammers LiHv 4s 130c 6,000mah turned into a spicy pillow from that run. Not happy with these 4s gensacearespammers packs at the moment. This is the second one now that’s done this… I’m watching it while it sits and it seems to be getting smaller… gonna check IR’s later and I’m hoping it’s okay. Overall happy with the power level, a little much if I’m honest. I’m scared to see what it would do on 6s… 😬
 

Just to get an idea for the speed on 4s with that surpass hobby motor. Few things; I was trying to not fall since the parking lot is a literal sheet of ice (it rained for 3 days), I’m driving with one hand and also trying to keep the car in a straight line because of the aforementioned sheet of ice. So, don’t judge my filming (or driving) abilities šŸ˜‚

She’s a ripper… very happy with how it came out. Off camera I drove it a lot harder and had more crashes. RPM arms held up great, no more snapped driveshafts, OG kaiju bumper held its own, etc. This is by far my favorite RC I’ve ever had and it’s a Redcat to boot, which feels odd to say lol. If you’re on the fence about getting a Kaiju EXT, do it.
