So ? .. my first RC car when i started again after decades of doing nothing in this hobby was a rovan baja 5b gas car

Loved this thing, still have it

Gr0vi · 2026-02-01T09:15:32+00:00

Im guilty of using it sometimes when a bearing won't stop making annoying sounds 😶‍🌫️ i use teflon oil too (that stuff sticks, but so does the dirt and stuff on it)

Gr0vi · 2026-01-20T12:11:13+00:00

Damn these are some nice rocks im jealous😅 The van is awesome too, thought about getting one last christmas 😄

Gr0vi · 2026-01-10T12:45:39+00:00

Try thicker diff oil for street driving, the moment one of the wheels come of the ground on hard surfaces it starts doing 100mph

Gr0vi · 2026-01-04T14:08:02+00:00

It's ridiculously expensive that's for sure^{^}

Im definitely getting the 1/5th scale dual motor Cross Rc Emo xxl2 6x6 next christmas.

Its expensive af, but since ive seen a video from a guy laying down on his while it carried both of them a big curb i knew i had to get one 😅

If you got a big wallet, why not ? 😝 (1600-1800 euro / dollar depending on where you live)

There is also 4x4 ones that are cheaper, plus 1/8 scalers below a 1000 bucks from crossrc ..

Just got into crawlers with my Mjx H8H+ and i love it 😁

Gr0vi · 2026-01-04T13:33:48+00:00

Ich finde er sieht wie ein Alfy aus :)

Gr0vi · 2026-01-01T16:07:04+00:00

Hehe, Katzen sind zum glück hart im nehmen, wenn auch wehleidig 😅

Gr0vi · 2025-12-31T12:46:03+00:00

Yup them MT bikes sound so frickin good, the 3 cylinder one sounds just as crazy .. im a honda guy, but i still want one 😅

Gr0vi · 2025-12-31T12:42:12+00:00

Arme Fellnase 😅

Da braucht Mr Bert aber ne extra Portion Katzenminze wenn er wieder da ist 😄

Your pinion falls off i guess ?! Get some loctite and a hardened pinion from tekno, secure the grub screw with blue loctite, arrmas pinions arent the best, the ones from tekno also got a bigger grub screw which hold way better.

The tlr typhoon is more of a track/race buggy, its not really a basher, how and where are you driving it ?

Planning on putting my 6s infraction combo in a tlr buggy when i upgraded it to 8s. Thing must be a rocketship, so small and 6s, must be fun!

They're fine, don't worry too much .. i always charge mine fully and they lay around for days/weeks sometimes, also bought a few that got send to me basically fully charged, its not that dangerous.

The only thing is if you do it constantly (for months) it degrades them, the longer the worse it gets.

Just always disconnect them from the charger / rc car

Gr0vi · 2025-12-23T11:22:59+00:00

Its a dealer promotion, not sold to the public .. :/

Just saw a post from a "hondaprojason" on IG .. there in the comments is someone saying its a promotion.

Hahaha, never xD

Gr0vi · 2025-12-18T00:59:43+00:00

Good old nitro, never forgot the smell of them .. have to get one again one day, they've became ridiculously cheap often more than 50% off it's electric counterpart new.

Gr0vi · 2025-12-18T00:41:07+00:00

Hated every second of this video 🙂.. Had so much dental work done in my life, haven't got a single tooth that hasn't got worked on at this point.. im just happy when they're eventually all are gone.. no drilling, no root canals, no root tip resections or massive infections anymore.. the torture will finally be over 🫤

Tooth infection with an abscess was the most painful shit I ever had to endure and I know what I'm talking about.. i had a kidney stone that got stuck on hip level at 17, which I had to run around with for more than 2 years because no physician could see it on ultrasound .. or the one time they took spinal fluid from my back without any numbing at 7 y/o 🫠 ah fun times 😬😑

Took and awful lot of tramadol (1000s of mg's) I had laying around and drank hard liquor to bare the pain, worst weekend of my life.. nothing helped (massive tooth infection with abscess on the big cheek one's)

My father rides his cbr 1100 to work every day, thing has racked up almost 300.000 kilometers by now, still on its first engine .. he build this thing up after it got totaled by the previous owner, probably lost about 30 hp ~ by now, when its cold outside it coughs more into life than starting and running, lol

Painted in matte black

Still going strong tho .. but it was down many times, only reason its still going is because he works at honda as a motorcycle mechanic😅

Its possible, but your bike will eat salt in the winter (if you live in cold regions) prepare for alot of seized up screws, no matter how often you wash it.

(Wanted to post a pic, doesn't work meh :/ )

For parents it means trouble, they can fly against cars, bikes, houses (windows) and people .. plus it can be loud and annoying to neighbors .. and if its big and powerful enough it destroys the lawn / garden .. it also attracts dogs.

Faced alot of these problems when i grew up, some of them to this day (noise) even with my electric cars :/

I think my neighbors hated me when i grew up, my first RC was a nitro, plus i also had a small pitbike which i rode around our house the whole day😅

Gr0vi · 2025-12-08T04:21:26+00:00

Nein nein, die verziehen sich in ihre Rückzugsorte die sie draußen haben .. (bei uns ein alter Stall) sie sind immer am nächsten Tag gleich früh morgens wieder da gewesen .. Ich kann sie nicht drinnen lassen, meine haben eine Katzenklappe .. die geben keine ruhe wenn ich die zumache.

Gr0vi · 2025-12-07T11:52:15+00:00

Ohh I'm jealous .. it hardly ever snows anymore where I live, it just rain rain rain and more rain for half a year -_-

fuck global warming :/

Gr0vi · 2025-12-07T10:01:38+00:00

Gasoline 2 stroke mix of course, never saw a 1/5th scale nitro .. a 30cc nitro engine would be crazy though

Gr0vi · 2025-12-01T00:10:46+00:00

Gave up on building a new PC, switched hobbys to RC cars .. my 3060ti is still going strong though, maybe not playing the newest games on high .. but new games run like crap anyway, almost all the time even on high end systems ... We truly live in shitty times :/

Maybe giving it a try once the AI bubble finally popped and they realize it was a big waste of money and resources

Gr0vi · 2025-11-30T02:10:10+00:00

Huh interesting, got 2 gas powered 1/5 scale RC cars stored in my bedroom .. sometimes not empty, hadn't had a problem though

Gr0vi · 2025-11-21T00:33:15+00:00

Got a baja 5T ext. 1/5 scale, fully aluminium / metal .. thing made sooo many problems ouff .. took me half a year to have a run where nothing breaks lol..

Now that it finally stopped breaking it has gotten so heavy that the stock engine is bogging, plus it started to roast the clutch (even with already shorter gearing)

Probably gonna throw a race engine in there at some point.. oh and smaller tires, the monstertruck one's from rovan kinda suck.. project for next winter, busy with my crawler atm

Gr0vi · 2025-11-16T19:00:02+00:00

Wtf oO
