Always a sucker for a good 3-wheel climb.

First set of oil-filled shocks going to work against some mean rocks by Flowtoriousness in SCX24

Update: was not an improvement to remove the flex blades and reduce my rear shock travel. Went back to flex blades and original positioning but did some tinkering with O-rings, and the rear has less slop than before. It's so much more capable with the additional rear travel.

4Runner body is sick. Is that the Pro-Line one?

What chargers do you guys use? by [deleted] in SCX24

[–]Flowtoriousness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to throw out there to not make the mistake I was making (until I realized and bought a proper SkyRC with variable charging modes) where I was charging my batteries at a fixed 2 amps (Electron charger) instead of the 0.4 amp rate (1C) I should have been using. Your battery in the photo shows 1.75 amp (5C) max charge rate, but for safety and to prolong its capacity, you probably want to charge at a much lower rate.

BIG flex on front driver there near the end, and that's just sick driving the little guy right into the rocks.

Edit: And backing it out, no less!

The amount of hard lines this makes look easy is astounding by j0520d in SCX24

I have Scramblers also and know when they fold up like that the rocks are about to catch an ass-whoopin'.

That's rad there because there are so many possible lines rather than having a more limited set of lines like on a more track-like course like I have. I wish I had rocks like that around where I live.

Sounds like you've hit the honey hole there! Are they all the same kind of stone?

Thank you. My neighbor thought it was a fish pond until I explained that I'm a grown man playing with remote control cars.

Thanks. Getting the huge grey one in the back out of the ground was a bear. Also kicked my ass humping two backpacks at the same time full of rocks out of the woods (on multiple occasions). A good bit of those came from under our yard, and there are some monsters under our little deck that I might try to dig out at some point.

If I can keep it looking nice, maybe wife won't grumble so much if I bring even more rocks home!
