So, What R/C Did You Run Today?

[Tunedfrog]

Gave up trying to find the Remote to my favorite X-maxx and bound a different remote to it, and took it for its first rip in over 6 years.
Still runs as good as ever.

Awesome rig, it's been a while since I've ran mine also. I just can't seem to get back into it.

It sure was.
This week everyone made a lot of progress, for the most part everyone is now going around the track in the right direction. Lol

Overall their control skills have started to improve to the point I was able to get some quality grudge racing going.
It’s amazing how a little friendly competition gets new RCer’s to focus and start learning vehicle control .

The prior weeks were fun but the track was more of a war zone, and my cones seemed to have been mistaken for targets. Lol

After a few weeks in a row of everyone leaving with all their RCs broken. lol
Some needing some pricey repairs. Today was a big turning point.

Loads of Fun racing, minimal damages, everyone left with their RCs still fully functioning . Lol

Some really great progress has been made!

Progress is good!

Yea, it’s not really my favorite, it’s still fun. It was not in my original mix of trucks I had out to run today.
The big girl had plenty of fan request to make an appearance today . Lol

Not sure the general cared for it. lol

Ran the slash and rusty. They've been collecting dust. Surprised that they were.
Esc tape didn't suffice in the slash. Guess I hit the parking strips too hard.

How's it going today? Today i got to run my X-Maxx after months of it sitting on shelf and it was blast i jumped it off my homemade ramp my dad made me. I ran for almost an hour and in 89 F OKC climate and no overheating happened temps were around 100 - 110 F on both motor and ESC.

Here's an after run pic.

Although one of my batteries had misbalanced cells but it balanced itself out during the run. Luckily there wasn't a battery or ESC fire and nothing on the truck broke man my X-Maxx is now tank.

well you can, the video would just have an edit every 4.7 seconds so i could turn it right side up again.

Not with me. Weird...

well aren't you just a factory sponsored driver

 

[DavidB1126]

I'm not sponsored by any brand
Could use a tire sponsorship right now. I need new tires badly for clay (ie modern dirt)

Jconcepts? Promotion? TZO? Hit me up

 

[Suburban_Hooligan]

turn your old tires inside out. trust me, it works. ...at least on stadium trucks...

 

[DavidB1126]

can't work if you have a hole in them!

Trying to unglue/reuse tires or wheels buggy wise is a pain trying to get it all apart, compared to ST or SCT it is a whole lot easier to do.

 

[Suburban_Hooligan]

glue the foams to the wheels and sauce up. it'll be fine.

I took my Daughter's Tekno for a spin today.
I burned a battery pack in Thing/Slash. It's the Toughest truck I've ever owned.

I took Thing/Slash to the skatepark. It was a lot of fun.
I also spent some time at TRUCK KILLER park, that was a lot of fun too. It's an earned name. That's just a small piece of it, the place is huge.

How's it going everyone on this fine Fridat afternoon? I got to run my Slash 4x4 Ultimate this morning when it was reasonably cool outside and my Dad was working in the garage. It's a really fun fast truck go from doing jumps then blazing down my street at 45mph with it.

 

[CJSRCLIFE]

Also put a few min of run time on my new Big Hoss..

Cool, I've had a Hoss for years now although i now have listed on eBay along with my X-Maxx esc, the system that used to be in my Hoss and my other backwards compatible PS3. If it all sells i should have more than enough money to buy or preorder the new model iXSR once it comes out.

Couple of minis again today. It's kinda hot and my rock garden is shady!
