Capo R/C and some new stuff

[Szczerba]

Anyone seen some of the new stuff coming out from Capo? They already make two sweet 8x8's. Super pricey but probably worth it if you have the $,$$$.

Saw on their Facebook page, this.

CapoRacing - NOTHING TO SOMETHING EVEN BETTER

[Harley]

Interesting! I wonder what scale that is.

[KBrog]

Very cool, I like it.

[Szczerba]

The only draw back will be price. Their 8x8 is about $4,000. This is only 4x4, so maybe half the cost?

I asked about the scale on their FB post.

Pulled from one of the picture captions.


"Try to think, what kind of product which can let you to buy it no matter what they cost?
What if , it's all-metal, and you can do the paint job and waxing it the same way as we do to the real cars?
The Gearbox with 3 different gear ratio range?
Transfer case which can switch between 2wd and 4wd?
What about the hydraulic steering?
And the realistic even with the functional belt?
Also, its name is Capo CD15823?

October ......October .........October !"

[dezfan]

Looks pretty cool.

[gearhead79]

wow!!!!
That LS sure looks awsome,so does everything else

[STANG KILLA SS]

i dont even wax my real cars

[Harley]

All that design work and they are showing it with Nitto Mud Grapplers...

[badhoopty]

depending on the cost... i totally want this.

this is the kind of rig i want axial to make. something really, REALLY scale.

[TEDROCKZ]

Cool! I have been wanting one of those Tatras ever since I stomached the rc sparks vids of it. Capo has come as close to real scale on a produced rc as I have seen.
Like Shane said though the price tags are pretty big.

[Tzi]

Seriously hanging out for some more info on this!!!

That's a great 1.1 tire for the mid south. Made lots of lines no one else did with them.
I could only imagine the scale B-52 sound they would make!! Awesome!!
I wish they would make some scale ones!

[rcjeepbuilder]

This thing remind me of scale arts trucks and equipment. I would say its a diecast body and it looks like a push pull cable steering not hydro.

Work of art in my book!!!!

Looks like the USD got a little stronger.
The Czech price is $2188 now for the 8x8.

[KJ10]

drive-train is intriguing.

[alabamaman]

Awesome by all means , but should it have a HEMI in it ?
Does not matter I will never be able to afford one.

[badhoopty]

for a couple g's id hope the drivetrain and mechanicals are up to task.

[Natedog]

ANy updates? Who bought one? Where's the test and upgrade thread?
