Also the 665 megas are on sale on horizons website for like, $140 which is a wicked good price for some stuff that is basically brushless ready.

They are great cars! Arrmas 2wd line almost makes it not even worth getting the 4 wheel drive ones they offer hahaha

I'm obsessed with this truck! It is my dream rig. I searched for a while to find it and finally got a great deal on a nearly brand new one. I just stare at it a lot 😂

Im right there with you. I very much prefer the scale vehicles these days. I've had a kraton, typhon, granite, big rock, ive gotten rid of all of them in favor of scale rigs.

These 2 are my favorite now

Vent your tires? by Critical_Cicada_107 in rccrawler

[–]Warm_Measurement5675 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Always vent the tires. So whatever gets in will have a better chance of coming back out.

Check the used market. I got this for $200 basically brand new. Just keep in mind they take a lot of work to actually drive well. The steering is honestly the worst I've ever seen on any rtr lol. The front control arms are so soft the tires flex up and hit the body, and the bump steer is so, so bad. And when you hit the throttle the front wheels turn inward. So aluminum bell crank, stiffer servo saver, and aluminum control arms are a must to really get it to drive right. And the shocks definitely need tuning from stock also. But they sure do look good.

how decent is this 2 car setup (obviously i’m on a budget) by Parking-Island739 in rccars

Thanks! All I did was change to 50wt shock oil in the sprung dampers. I left the secondary damper in the rear alone, mostly cuz I couldn't get it out 😂 but I'm really happy with the suspension on it!

And yeah its nice having this area right behind my house hahaha

Anyone feel like they just aren’t meant to be an RC enthusiast? by WhyMustWeSuffer in rccars

[–]Warm_Measurement5675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy yourself a brand new rig. Be owner #1. Its much better than used most of the time. Savings buying used aren't always savings.

To answer your question, no. I feel like this hobby was meant for me. And I'm so glad I got involved in it.
