| Crawlers are king, but....
what other RC's do you own and use fairly regularly? My crawlers are listed in my sig. Besides that, I have: - Traxxas Stampede 4x4 - Associated TC5 - Twisted Industries RC-18T clone I also have an OFNA 1/8 electric buggy that someday will recieve some attention. It just hasn't been a priority, especially since I was going to use it as a basher, and the Stampede 4x4 fills that bill nicely. Oh, and I have an original 80's Associated RC-10L pan car rolling chassis. Might be cool to put some inexpensive electronics into it just to get it in running order. It would be far from competitive, and I don't race anyway. So, whatcha got? |

In order of purchase: Traxxas Rustler (girlfriends-disassembled for crawler parts) Losi Mini-LST (bought used) Traxxas E-Revo (sold for mini revo's) Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo x2 (girlfriend had to have on too) Losi Micro HIGHRoller (custom TheToyz.com wide track) E-Flite Micro heli Duratrax Cliff Climber Losi Micro Crawler HPI CrawlerKing (friend rig) G-made R1 (sportsman rig) Venom Creeper (girlfriends sportsman rig) Berg Tracer (Pro W.I.P.) Losi Pro Roller Seems like a lot but thats over the course of 3 years... My girlfriend works at the LHS and one day she came home with the Rustler... said she always wanted an R/C. Few months later she bought me the mini LST used for $40. Then I got a good deal on a Revo, but it was to big for my taste... waited till the mini revo got released and sold the revo. Tower Hobbies had a sale on the Cliffclimber and the "Crawler Obsession" started... |

So far, I've been able to control my urge to buy more r/c's. Only have 3 so far, although I hope to add at least a couple more to the list in 2011. Losi Night Crawler Axial XR10 Traxxas Slash 2wd |

I have a 1.9 scx10, a 2.2 axial comp rig and when im not messing with them, im beating on my brushless blitz. Not really sure if i need another r/c, i would rather have a few really nice ones that run at anytime, then a whole bunch of dust collecting non-functioning ones, but i would LOVE to own the new hpi baja sc if i could afford to maintain/upgrade one |

TC3 w/ rally kit (widens to 200) CTS-V body, Mercedes Body, RC10T body with BFG tires RC10T, had it since new ~1992 And a gold pan RC10 from ~1990 [IIMG]http://s-seriesforum.com/albums/album73/rc7.sized.jpg[/IMG] Also, Brushless T4 Some cheap hydroplane boat. ~2ft long. Fun, but needs perfect water, and I need to upgrade electronics... it's slow. Threw a faster motor in and it was great.... till the endbell melted loose. |

I have a Losi High Roller (1:10) that I mess around with when crawling gets a little too slow, I also want to purchase a Tamiya TT-01E Suzuki SX4 Rally (which would be my first kit as well).
