What did you think of RCX?

[Team 17]

But is it the same one in the pic above?

Did anyone see the nitro big rig by TruckStopRacing.com? I almost forgot about that until looking through the pictures that I took. It was one of the neatest things at the show. They had a video of it hauling a T-Maxx and a Savage on a flatbed trailer. The truck had a .21 engine.

Team 17, they all looked the same to me. I think they were all copies and re-branded for each diffent "company"

Scott, the TV was for the RC tractor trailer guys. I was 2 booths down from them.

Hey Scott- I looked for you but the guy I talked to said you were around. I was hoping to meet you and talk about the MGT cage. Anyways great looking cage!!! I even got to stand on it like your ads show!!! I looked for the owner of Ramtech but the booth was freaking full like Rc-solutions. I was annoyd on the fact that I didn't get to buy any ything I wanted to like I planned. I ended up buying a 645 MG for 33 Bux. The Tracks were pretty cool. I was hoping to see a demo on some brushless motors. I also wanted to get a a view of the LST in motion. I didn't really care too much on the Revo asthe Mill is the same.

Ramtech your rims are the poop!!! They are NIIIICCEEE!!! Well worth the money I would spend.
I hope next year will be better. Let us Buy!!!!

Shoot me a PM when you are ready, I'll give you the show discount. Some times during the day, there were too many people to get a word in. I'm even sending anything over $100 for free now. Alot of people couldn't get to talk in person to me, until around 4:00, then it calmed down a bit.

Sorry I missed you jon. I was either driving or fixing trucks. I was probably in the repair pit. The hacker guys drove the crap out of brushless stuff. They did double backflips over hovering planes, and just kicked ass. They had brushless mini-ts that were unbelieveably fast, and xxx-4's that could literally disappear into the catwalks in the ceiling. We drove with them on the tracks at the same time, in case you didn't see us on the schedual.

I left around 3:00 since I had to get back and pick up the wife. I would have came both days but I was discouraged by the fact we couldn't buy what we wanted. I was planning on buying a pipe for my buggy and some tires as well. I even brought enough cash if there was an outrageous price for a K3 or a storm. I want to have a pair of buggies. Anyways Scott your cages kick ass!!! I was hoping for a demo of a MGT or TMAXX that had one so I could get first look at how good the protection is. Next year the members that go should wear RCNT shirts to represent!!! I would have but didn't get money in time. Ramtech I wanted to meet you as well so I could talk about your Rims cuz I am diggin them BIG!!! They are so freaking sweet.

Yeah guys I am reading the review on the revo in RCCA. I have to say that magazine is partially owned by traxxass or something. I mean honestly the editor's notes have even said that the only truck to be different thus far from the maxx is the LST and they were braggins on how well the revo is built. I dunno they have a jaded view. The savage is quite different from the maxx Ummm hello stock TVP's are better than the maxx chassis design. I'll agree with Scottm how on earth does the stupid Revo make truck of the year when it is barely in production and not even released. That is just upsetting as far as I am concerned.

I looked at the revo and the suspension is smooth and plush, with a lot of travel. But I wonder if all the extra pivots and stuff will get loose and sloppy. Also the steering linkage is complex with a lot of moving parts.

Its called advertising dollars.
When you have money to through around you can buy anything you want including industry awards and good wright-ups.


My socks are all in order and I folded my T-shirts as well. Who wanted to got to a stupid RC show any way. O-well atleast I got to go last year.

From what I hear it was a great experience for everyone who went. I'm glad to hear RamTech and Rc Solutions had packed booths and I look forward to seeing their growth continue.

WHO MADE THE DAMN HELI?.....

 

[Shogun1122]

Ok i posted this once in this thread but i guess no one stopped to read it. THE HELI WAS MADE BY MS COMPOSITE AND THEY WERE SELLING FOR AROUND $400 for a complete package. Not sure what exact model as MS Composite has several diff models. I'm also not sure what came in the package, cuz it seems cheap.

I can't believe that the Revo was truck of the year, in my eyes RCCA has no credibility and i will never buy one of their mags.

 

[rs43drifter]

Yeah, I was at the award dinner and everyone was wondering how the revo was truck of the year when it isn't even out.

And its things like this that make this site great. We cut the BS, we are the users and those mags are so corprate it's hillarious. Traxxas make me chuckle. They are Disney of RC, sell it to the fullest it's all about profit and keep it clean. lmao

 

[jon2]

I did see the Spider man Monster GT!! That was pretty Phat! I don't think I will get another Traxxas product unless they come out with an 1/8 scale buggy. If they do they better at least put in the S-25 mill.. at least!! Anyone see the Big ass F-150 that was made to look like the Savage? It was pretty cool. I hope that Next yeaer we will be able to take advantage of buying things at a cheaper cost since we make the trip to go to RCX!!!

 

[HumboldtBlazer]
