Well I got back from st george a few hours ago. The Ultra 4 race was a blast, as well as the comp. I did manage to drive 3 1350 3s packs through it and I'm really surprised how well it wheels for how heavy and scale it is. Tires worked well on this sand stone, glad i put them on. Anyways, enjoy.

The freak 1.5 rc crawler rail slide - YouTube

If not, here's one of my favorite pics off my phone to make up for it. Winch line got all tangled up so i removed it, but don't pay attention to that.

I've been having a blast with this rig, i almost wish he wouldn't have done such a good job on everything so i could say i at least did something to it

I'd really like to add decals to match the 1:1. I need to order up stefan's (scaleoffroad) photo etched jeep decals, and find a way to get the rest made up.



Took her out today for a hike up the canyon i didn't get many pictures so i threw in a couple leftovers from the red rock trip.



I need to repair the windshield frame. I'm thinking of reinforcing the top of it since it's doomed pretty much any time it tips onto its side. I try not to let that happen too much

Great shots and a superb job on the Jeep.

Second shot from the top easily passes for the real thing.

I give A+, plus extra credit.

This is a very very nice looking scaler. What is the wheel base?

No idea! I'll measure it when i get home from work.

I went camping over the weekend for a rc crawl and ultra 4 race. Of course i took the scalers and managed to sneak in some drive time and pictures of the freak. The pictures with gates is me on the 1.9 comp course after they were done, enjoy


The Rokmen body armor sure saved me here!

Last pic is the ish! I wish they made mtr tires in a 1.55 size. They make the two face in 1.9 but way too big! Dont try it, i wasted money buying them.
