How dare you tempt me with such things! Must resist!

You and me both my friend. $155 for the brushless outrunner, 4wheel steer, just the look of it has me sold! $115 for the brushed version.
I don't have anything from UDIRC but this one looks decent. It is very tempting.

I wssn't sure before... but now I see the steering modes of the steering groups can be switched!!!
I'm IN !!!

I found one for $112 in brushless, I may have to give this a go. It doesn't have many YT videos yet so either it is that new or nobody is reviewing it.
4 wheel steer, brushless outrunner, hi and low gear, looks like it uses hex wrench hardware.
This seller claims this one is brushless....

Thread 'The "What did you buy today?" thread...'

Mar 9, 2011

I thought it would be pretty cool to introduce this thread to the forum as I haven't seen one on here.

You know those days when you buy something or get a package in the mail and you want to share it with everyone cause your so ecstatic to have gotten that brand new (or used) goodie? Well this is a perfect place for that! It does not have to be R/C related but is preferred.

This is also a great way for people to discover what kinds of things are out there that they may not know about.

Please include a picture and some type of description of what your showing off.

So I guess I...

o i like that!!
i can't wait to see yours

Looks similar to an FMS lemur without portal axles. Obviously the body is different, but it shared quite a few design cues. Wonder if parts are shared? May give a good idea on it’s durability as well if it is indeed coming from the same supplier.

The lemur is on sale right now for $90 and the portal axles alone almost make it a better deal at that price point. Granted it’s not brushless, but I can’t really say I’ve gotten the itch to brushless swap my micro crawlers lol

But four wheel steer sweetens the deal.

Well I'll be....
Its nice.......!

 

[WickedFog]

Love the look of that little guy!

But this decal has got to go

True, but the 4 wheel steer version is $155. Parts for the FMS are so cheap, I wonder if you could convert it over to 4 wheel steer for $65 and have portal axles + 4 wheel steer in a similar setup and price?

It’s a tough one for sure, I just need to see it on someone bench to really see value in it! I’m also thinking like someone who can’t leave well enough alone, so there’s that lol. Who is the guinea pig??

TeknoJ will have it on the operating table soon enough I bet.

Mine was $121.00 shipped.

That’s a good deal, what site did you order from? I was going off the link OP posted. The ones for $118 didn’t have 4 wheel steer and the 4 wheel steer ones were $155… unless I read it wrong.

I happen to have some fcx24 portal axles from another project…

As soon as I saw it I was thinking…. I have 2 front axles from an FMS fcx24 and that right there looks like a lemur thing!
Let’s get this into the lab!

Oh I am so glad they did decals instead of painting those. Painting these horrible translations is the worst. Nobody wants to look at a car that says “fasting” or “force”.
