Sc slingshots suck, sand paws ain't great, the best ones are panthers.
Even better are the selfmade paddles.
That's awesome to hear.

Thanks for the tire tip too. I was wondering how the Pro-line sand paws and Panther paddles stacked up to the SC paddles.

Well done, you've found the site.
I think you would be welcome to register there and talk english, since not many of you can speak finnish, can you?
I'm making a foff axial too for the summer, since i only ran it for about hour last year. Can't wait for the snow to melt.

All in good time. The brushless set-up is working great now after a gearing change.

I have 2.2 intimidators, they're too small for ax10 and they aren't panthers.
I have been making homemade tires for HBX Bonzer cheapo tires. It isn't that hard, except for the cutting, once you get it going you make a mistake and have a hole in your tire, which is terrible to fill.
I have 2 tires done, 1 not glued and 1 not cut or glued, i'd be glad to tell the results once they're done and the snow melts.

I would love to see the tires when you're finished.

Ok, I think I have found the right combo of wheel speed.

I am pretty sure the IFS rigs are the way to go in the R/C world, as far as capability goes. All of the Unlimited class builds in R/C are IFS that I have seen.

I love it. Nice work Bender.
I'm working on my second AFOR now with a third in mind.
My first was a Hyper 10 but it can't really handle the punishment I give it.
The latest is a Slash 4x4 just for the ease of stock electronics.
The next will be solid axle, OG style.
Keep it up, these things are alot of fun.
We have a half dozen guys here playing with them, dialing them in and now it's time for some hillside flags.


MY AFOR info
