I hope somebody comes along who knows something about the 4x4 obstacle course type R/C's, I really crave a Unimog one.

Love this, especially since some of them come with working winches.

You guys are a bunch of assholes, I just went out and spent $350 on a goddamn crawler, drove it around for an hour, then tore it apart to put in the locking front diff and crawler gears. This is insanity.

What I ended up with, Axial AX10 and a nice battery and charger... http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=24_59&products_id=321

YAY! I just got an email from the senior editor of a popular RC magazine, guess my Vette posted above will be in a future mag. I won the Concourse competition in the IGT class at the MONTONICA GRAND PRIX in vegas over the weekend. Sadly the racing didn't go so well.


Can we get some pictures of your work? so those of us not in the know can have a look?

Since we are talking about scale, I guess I should speak up. I bough the AX10 as a starter to see how I liked RCing, but my real plan is to start working on some custom scale crawlers. I have seen some amazing stuff out there, and am fortunate enough to have the equipment and knowledge to really build some cool scale stuff. One area that really seams weak in a lot of the builds I have been looking at is the frames, usually just a few pieces of alum rivited together. I can do way better than that. Next step is going to be a Unimog kit, it will probably get most of the ax10's guts.
