So, What R/C Did You Run Today?

How many times must I say “though”?

Is that like a Traxxas swap?

That’s probably the 520/521. An early 60’s truck. Nothin but a tin can, those weigh like 1500 lbs?
 
I found a nice patch of gravel/dirt where I could run my Rampage, it definitely doesn't drive like your typical SCT, it feels more "authentic"...it also rolls over much easier.

The Super Hornet got to see some action too, which despite being a similar solid axle setup, is much easier to drive.

I also did some crawling around the yard.

Took the Arrma Gorgon out for a spin across the street today. Took a quick vid. I just suck at driving with one hand and taking a vid with the other. The whole orchard is filled with holes from the ground squirrels, like driving in a mine field.

It’s official. I’m an idiot. I’ve been wanting to try this boat out in too much wind and today I cracked. The wind is 12 mph with up to 20 mph gusts. It was a real circus
Haha
I'm idiotier! A couple of years ago, I tried flying a micro warbird plane in about the same windy conditions. Never saw that plane again.

Sweet mother of Godzilla….. that’s a nice car. I feel it’s sacrilege to drop a Chevy in their though…. I wouldn’t mind having one though. There’s a Chevy motor in my Isuzu though 🤷
One truck I was in..... gutted and tubbed out 80s ford ranger. No weight, motor with a chmage and steel body with slicks on a posi....... "built ford though with chevy stuff" was the motto. Had a chevy motor in it. 12 or so years ago she went to the Netherlands.

I thought about putting a hellcat motor in my silverado. Partly due to funds but more importantly since dodge is the new Honda I passed.

 
Hi, been a while...
Raced yesterday (club race) Buggy 4WD (mod and spec) and Sadium truck with my Slash 2WD and still a lot of fun.
Couple of little broken parts (servo arms, mount) and overheated motors but I've been ok for the Mains.
Track is slow and technical but we love it,...

I didn't actually get to operate it this time as the remote was having communication issues.
Sounds like you were using a RadioLink radio. Exact same problems I am having.

Can't tell if that is RC or 1:1 or a 1:1 RC?

Tell the truth: when the boss leaves for the day, you guys play Battlebots with these rigs, don't you?
 
Yikes, Mr. GW. Seeing more than a few of these images of broken Senton chassis. Notice ARRMA does have an aluminum frame for the Typhon. Wondering if that might be a back-fit for the Senton chassis? Used a few Typhon parts in my conversion of a Senton SCT to a buggy.
