Default Stock RTR Honcho Performance*Questions.

I currently do not own a RTR Honcho, so i am asking all RTR Honcho owners to try to answer these questions the best they can.

1. Speed.
- how fast does the stock RTR Honcho run on a straight?
2. Articulation.
- what degree articulation can the RTR Honcho flex at?
3. Your RTR Honcho.
- what sets your RTR Honcho appart from other scalers?

Depends on what motor
2. Articulation.

I don't know the exact degrees, but lots of pictures here.

3. Your RTR Honcho.
- what sets your RTR Honcho appart from other scalers?
My own little touches.

1its really fast stock for a scaler so u need bout a 14 tooth pinion instead of the 20

2it dose ok but you can put the included 4 link on for more articulation

3the long wheelbase

I just got the Honcho last weekend. I've had the scx10 for just over a year now and I like my Honcho so much better. Only mods I did was drop in a 55turn & 12t pinion and relocated the battery crossways between the front shock mounts and motor/tranny. This thing does better with 1.9 stocks than my scx with 2.2 moabs. I guess it's because of the longer wb

i just thought of two more questions.

4. Overall Height
- what is the overall height of the stock RTR Honcho? Tower Hobbies says 5.4" but that seems quite small being that they said the trucks Length is 18".

5. Pull Power
- if anyone knows or can test, how much weight can the stock RTR Honcho pull?

dead weight? hard to say because of traction issues and friction of the dead weight, but i know my honcho can pull over 100lbs of dead weight if it is on wheels, im running a Holmes Hobbies 30t motor with a 15t pinion

and the total hight of mine with rok loks on it is 8 and 3/4 inches to the top of the cab and the rok loks are roughly 1/8th- 3/16ths or so taller than the stock tires, so thats like 1/16th taller than with flat irons on
