Yes it is huge and a pain the ass to move around the house. Very heavy and I knew she would be because she is all aluminum.Sweet lookin ride! Is that a five gallon bucket? If it is that beast is huge!
I highly recommend a Rovan Baja 5b to get you started. They are very affordable and part are plentiful.Axial SMT10 for me. Cage work is realistic, but a bugger to work around. Too much of a hassle for me. My one and only foray into solid axle MT. Will sell it as a ARTR on Ebay.
1/5 gas burner buggy's been on my wish list for the longest. Have a two-car garage with an open bay. Probably build a service ramp rather than try to fit it on a bench if I ever get one.
Naw...I luv working on my1/28 cars. Provides the exact type of 'challenge' I enjoy. Now, tuning them is a different story - small adjustments can cause a huge difference.Literally anything 1/14TH scale and smaller. The small parts and screws drive me nuts working with them.
Growing up we had a cat named Pita. Her sister was hemie. Short for hemroid.Naw...I luv working on my1/28 cars. Provides the exact type of 'challenge' I enjoy. Now, tuning them is a different story - small adjustments can cause a huge difference.
As for my "least fav", it was the Axial Capra. Dealing with the space inside the cage was a PitA.

They’re fun, but yeah. Just got done switching to brushless, and it took me over an hour, plus if you think the gear mesh is wrong you have to pull the whole transmission out.
