Drivers not required. Post #2 updated to include all rules for the format despite what you may have been told or read elsewhere. Tried to keep things as simple as possible. Some parts come across as a little harsh, but that is not the intent. Just wanted cover all the bases and remind people the stuff we built is designed to be portable, lightweight (NOT TOUGH LIKE ROCKS) and provide a challenge. If people try to over power the obstacle they probably will Last edited by Fishmaxx; 04-23-2013 at 08:02 PM. | |

I'll do more antics off the obstacles most likely. The ones I see here look to be best handled in a slower controlled manner....area between these obstacles is full throttle!

Except for the action figure I wasn't referring to you specifically. It was actually very difficult to design stuff challenging for a 2.2 Wraith and still doable for a 1.9 Honcho. Yes there will be plenty of opportunity to OPEN up the throttle. | |

Roughly 10.5 hours. We should be checking in at Weiss Lake Lodge around 4pm. After that we'll head up to the site. |

I realized I've never taken a picture of my Wraith... Everything is ready, just waiting for work to end and Farmer to show up at my house to get on the road. We'll be there mid-day Friday it sounds like (stopping on the way down to split the drive up). |

| Re: 2013 ECC Scaler Jam The Portable Winch Station is finally compete....talk about waiting until the last minute Actually I built several versions that were EPIC FAILURES. Old Ti-servos had chipped gears, other motors were too fast and uncontrollable, subject to breaking the line or ripping the bumper off your scaler, at a higher voltage, and too weak to pull a fly of a turd at a lower voltage. I think what I finally came up with is durable, controllable, and relative east to use. As soon as Youtube approves the video you guys can check it out. Video goes here The plan is have 1x mandatory winch climb at the start. Once they get past that use of the winch will be at the drivers discretion. None of the obstacles were tested in the rain...so who knows what will happen Last edited by Fishmaxx; 04-25-2013 at 11:29 AM. |

Had a ton of fun. The man made obstacles were a blast. Big thanks to Destroyer, Colby, Stelerzman, and Fishy. I had an awesome time, and the screamin bronco came back in one peace. Your welcome Austin. |
