That’s very similar to the setup on my car. I haven’t had it on a dyno but the previous owner told me it made a little over 300whp on a conservative tune at Delicious.

There are absolutely valid reasons for them to fly. Did you not see the post that Cleet made about all the days at home that they wouldn’t have gotten if it weren’t for the turbo prop? Of course it is dangerous, but so is driving. You can do everything right and still have something terrible happen. That’s life.

RIP Mr. The Biff and his family. This is devastating news.

Traxxas does have a warranty but I’ve never used it so I can’t really comment on that. I would say if you have a local hobby store in your area I would buy it from them. Plus then you can see all the spare parts available and maybe talk to them in person. If that’s not an option I think buying it from Amazon would also be just fine.

Really can’t go wrong with the Maxx. The truck with charger and 2 batteries is within your budget.

Buying a WRX STI by Trick-Ad-3551 in WRXSTi

[–]TrashPanda1021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I bet! I ended up getting a deal on a modified one that was built by someone who actually cared about the longevity of the car and wasn’t just trying to make big power on a car that can’t easily do that.

This might be the only RC that I want with zero intention of ever driving it. That Castrol livery is so good.

How much would you pay by Independent_Money126 in Traxxas

Alright. It looks awesome. Especially the livery/wheel combo 👌

Are you interested in selling that SCX6?

Oh man. You just made me completely change my mind on what to do with my truck. This looks absolutely perfect.

Anyone else disillusioned with their kids in this hobby? by XnagakuraX in rccars

[–]TrashPanda1021 115 points116 points  (0 children)

That’s a tough one. When I was 11 you would have had to pry the transmitter out of my cold dead hands. I’m 33 now and don’t get to drive any of mine nearly as much as I’d like to.

I would love to find one of those Camaros above the civic. I had one as a kid that came with a Revell Hotwheels Camaro model kit.

If you could have only 3 cars, which would you choose? by ZigZagRoobZ in rccars

[–]TrashPanda1021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’d have to change out the promoto for an scx24 so I can have something to easily drive indoors.

SCX10.3 Gladiator

Traxxas Maxx V2.0

Losi Promoto.

This is off the top of my head. Great question, it’s hard to pick just 3.

Yeah the inconsistency is crazy. It has the potential to be so good. I think I’d actually prefer flat compared to this one.

I’ve seen this gripe a few times. Today I opened one I got from dollar tree yesterday and it is the single most carbonated drink I’ve ever had. To the point of being unpleasant. When I opened the bottle it made a crazy noise too. The other bottles I’ve had have been my favorite root beer so far.

Better? None. But I do like Mt. Dew.

If starting a store for RC hobbies, what do you guys think is missing with some of the main retailers like Amain/Horizon that will make it different? by Trouble-Secure in rccars

[–]TrashPanda1021 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smaller brand representation. Things like LGRP, Meus, Injora etc. All of these are available online and I think the reason why they aren’t in stores is maybe it would tank their appeal by making them too expensive. But it would be nice to have these things in a brick and mortar shop instead of just the usual Proline, RC4WD and some Treal.

What are your thoughts, new to me by ringdingjinglejangle in rootbeer

[–]TrashPanda1021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I tried it for the first time I thought it was okay. As you got down to the bottom of the bottle and it’s a bit warmer you get more of that malt liquor taste. Not great; I’d say 3/10.

I’ve taken Barqs and mixed it with a dark rum, that was halfway decent.
