1. Put Nylint back in box 2. Sell 3. Buy something hobby grade Unless it's a Nylint specific comp, that's your best option. |

1.Make a Stick Chassis or a smaller NN chassis $20 2. 2.2 Wheels $10 3. 2.2 Tires $35 4. Another 1:18th Nylint for the lower gears and Parts $45 Maybe even 4WS 5. TQ3 w/ Rec Used $30 6. Shocks $20 7. Moped ESC $35 8. Cheap Servo $15-35 That should almost do it. You around that 200 Mark. Still cheaper then a TLT built up. |

Well, it would take money to put a nylint up to be even somewhat competitive with a TLT or 2.2 clod. I love my nylint, and I love modding them out, but I think a leaf sprung scaler would stomp my scorpion out on the rocks.

This one Crawled very good. I haven't seen one better. I couldn't find any vid's that still worked, but it climbed stairs easy. Many poeple said it could compete with TLT's.  |

yeah these nylints are pretty vulnerable in alot of spots, but are definitely worth the $$. takes alot to make them unstoppable

You won't get better at fab unless you start doing it, the first stuff I built took forever and was uh, less than great. My stuff still isn't the best, but it doesn't take forever.

They have to be hosted somewhere, you can't post them directly from your computer without a star. Use PutFile or tinypic.com
