because is too slow

but with a little modifications will be better

Lime, there are a few threads in the nylint section about this very thing. It seems it makes them much better to up grade the electronics.

There are also some nice threads about upgrading certain parts of the chassis to make them alot better for crawling etc. Take a look.

Not to be disrespectful or anything but they do have a search function here. It seems to work pretty good and the info you will find will be up to date.

I have used it a few times in the last few days myself and found alot of interesting info that was up to date.

IMHO,it would be better to just build a TXT or a Twin force. You can polish a turd all day long,at the end of the day.....you still have a turd

No one ever told him he had to sell it. Just sugessted building a complete hobby grade crawler. I would also reccommend getting a TXT or clod if you like the larger size.

nylints are a great way to get into the hobby. the 1/6 really is okay w/o putting in electronics, but you really need to replace the battery.

I loved my nylint and I know that for the money (at the time $50) it was a great truck.

If I could find another at that price, I might be willing to get it for my son

Once he gets really excited in crawling with his nylint and has learned the basics... he can move on to a TLT or bigger
