Pretty good for first time out, truck seems to run well, tell him how lucky he is to be running lipo at 11, I'm 36 and can't afford lipo right now (must be because I have an 11yr old). Oh yeah, the little shaver gets a penalty, touched a gate. Decals turned out great. |

you can kinda tell the xl-5 is touchy it would go from super slow to wicked just like that. a few of the times i think it was him giving it throttle but he seemed smooth most of the time which tells me the esc isnt the best for this app.

The ESC works great, He just needs pratice controlling his Speed. I can run it smooth as butter. But I've been running XL-5's over the last 2 years in different Crawlers. But all in all he did pretty good. I got my Crawler out to just find out I broke a CVD last time out I missed...  |

Awesom vid...... yep they grow up to fast and the attitude changes too :-x, our last comp here was like 9-10 months ago and my 12 yr old still rubs it in that he beat me by 3 placings ! Most step families don't get on and it's great to see that you and your stepson are, props to you for stepping up and giving Brendan the chance |

all i can say is RIGHT ON for being a GOOD step dad. My gf got 3 girls and the littlest one is like my lil buddy. shes 7yrs old and has been learning how to rock crawl. I just put on some losi rock claws on my tcs edge and even she notices the difference compared to stock axial tires... if shes gets really good i may have to buy a duratrax or mini losi crawler.....  |
