ok before i get slated, i just wanted to see what she could climb, with traction. so i put some glass paper on a scaffold plank and away i went. managed 54 degrees, battery up front, 4 oz in each wheel, ansmann 21t drift motor, xl5, and a steady throttle finger. i know its not the best looking but its worked very hard !

I posted a more complex video with 215 views and nothing. I haven't tested my climbing angle with a sand paper ramp but it looked impressive. Where those stock M2 compound tires or the G8 compound? Also I'd like to see it descend that same angle.

I Like how it pulls the front right off the board that's cool

I would like to se a 1:1 do that angle

Yes mate, stock flat irons. The hard ones. I presumed the front wheels would have pulled it rear up to the sand paper but at that angle you need all four lol. Do you have a link to your video? Also I did go back down the gradient, though that said it was by far from my first attempt. Am going to cut my battery posts down a quarter inch and try again . Really quite pleased with it. Did you see my other POV video? Look at 58 seconds! Lol

just been looking at another "incline", i was going to go for a 60 degree but it wouldnt be possible as there just isnt enough traction. maybe if i put some 60 grit sand paper on the plank. i know its kind of cheating in a way, but im just trying to see what angle i can do with traction. had an absolute blast yesterday, and am going to do a few more vids but with a bit of thought !
