I'm in love

[Boost Lee]

I bought a used Yeti XL and love it. It came stock with a few minor scratches. I thought I got screwed when the truck wouldn't work. When it did run for a few seconds it took off with no input by me. I checked all connections and all seemed good. I kept reading everyone's posts and I noticed 5000Mah was the smallest people were using. My train of thought of lightest smallest Lipo comes from foam planes. That doesn't work on surface vehicles. I bought a pair of 5000Mah 2s venom packs and she runs great now. So far my mods are a Axial rear sway bar, 30weight oil in rear shocks and a DX4c radio. I have video but this site won't let me post it yet.

Glad you are happy welcome to the fun.

Welcome to the world of the Yeti XL. Every other RC may seem kind of "meh" now. They certainly do for me. Every time I drive my Yeti XL I have a blast...even when it breaks.

30W in the rear may be a little heavy, but if it work for you keep it. My driving style may be different and shock tuning is a personal preference thing.
