| Re: Trail Honcho, For Trailing
I ran her today, Rain on top of snow, with the acompaning slush. I was pushing snow with the front axle... For the first time, I can climb my steps up the deck, The low cg and sticky proline's are the advantage here. Over all happy with the setup, and this is my small tire truck for sure. The funny thing is the Honcho has the same vertical clearance 4.3" Tsl's, under the diff as my F150, on 4.75" growlers. SSD D60's Th three trucks... The height difference is about equal beteen all three. |

New to this and no idea how or what parts. Would the battery have the same issues as the connector? "Why buy a new battery? You can just change the connector on the esc to match your battery. $3-$4 instead of $25- a whole bunch of money." |

Why use an adaptor and not just put a new one on esc, less resistance? I watched both. All that styrene in less then a week, wish I had those skills. Harleys I would have thought to address the issues when he did the changes but glad to see him point them out. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk |

That said, my understanding is. With a good fitting adapter in a low amp draw rig, like a scaler, the resistance is not noticeable. I will have to throw my watt meter on and see what kind of amperage she pulls when bound up. My buddys rig only pulls 20 amps when fully bound, and 2amps when running free at full throttle with a similar 3s 35t setup. Edit: The adapter comes with a battery rated at 66 amps continuious and 132 amps burst Quote:

The fenders I have been saving for 7-8 years, waiting for a build like this. I have wanted a honcho for years, early on I couldn't afford it. Then when I set the money aside The body combo was out of stock for months. Then I would get distracted and spend on another project. Anyway just never got around to it. When they announced the rerelease of the honcho,I jumped on it, wanting a Scx10II as well. Last edited by lonleycreeper; 01-11-2018 at 10:07 AM. | |||

I filled the bed up a little, Found a locking tote about the right size at Walmart for .88 cents and had these fuel cans from yeah racing, just sitting around, same with the pick. Lhs didn't have any white paint, so waiting on painting the fenders until I find the right stuff. |

| Re: Trail Honcho, For Trailing Nice looking rig. Do I spy Boggers on there? Lol. They have Fascolor, my airbrush is acting up though, They ordered Pactra on the spot, so a week or so. Last edited by lonleycreeper; 01-13-2018 at 10:12 AM. |

| Re: Trail Honcho, For Trailing I ran them on my wife's scx10, and really liked them. They have fantastic forward traction, but lack a little on the loose side hills, typically sliding off line.

| Re: Trail Honcho, For Trailing
I have been eyeing the new honcho RTR for a few weeks now. Looks like everyone is happy with theirs here. My only concern is the new axles in some reviews they point out that they are a weak link in the Honcho. Any issues so far with this?
