Awsome rigs on here, my start was just awhile ago with the YETI, I love the look and it seems like a good all around rig to go with. I like learning with this one.

9 years old in 1981 with my Tamiya Grasshopper then
Lunchbox
Frog
RC10

Long time off

Then in 2005 saw a wicked YouTube video of a yellow Toyota scaler with sweet Pink Floyd soundtrack

Tlt's with junfac chassis through TCS got me back into RC

After a few years of being obsessed with go fast and jumpin to the moon type bashing, I put together a Scx-10 Jeep Rubican Unlimited kit and was hooked from there! Now i have a Yeti kit, Wraith Spawn, Summit and a custom hybrid 2.2 build i custom made with IFS, wraith axle, summit trans, brushless power (before the yeti was a thought)

Well, ill be honest my 1st rig was in the 80's and it was something from radioshack cant remember the name but it was a 4x4 truck & i think it only came in yellow and blue. It was a piece but still my 1st. My 1st hobby grade rc was a traxxas nitro 4tec in i think the late late 90's and my 1st crawler was a ax10 scorpion in 05 or 06. i now own 3 moa's, 2 shaftys, and am building another.

If anyone wanna know where I started with... Well here it is :

I started with a HPI Crawler King.

Then a SCX10 (cr edition) and heavily modified.

After that I got a Exo Terra buggy.

And now a custom build crawler (about 1000 dollars in total)

This is where I started, with hobby grade anyway:



There was a stream of 2WD buggies and 4WD sedans after that with a couple of foolhardy forays into nitro. There was a bit of a lull during the time my wife was in med school and I sold everything off so we could eat and then I got back in with my first crawler/scaler in the form of a RTR Honcho, currently part way through a complete rebuild. Looks like this right now:

I am right behind you. Bought 2 Maisto Rock Crawlers for my kids. I am playing with them more than they are. Now I am looking at a scale rig. Many on my list (SCX10, TF2, Sawback, Ascender) just need to narrow it to one.

First "hobby grade" RC was an Aristo-Craft Kangaroo (I've been doing this for a little while). First crawler was Cliff Climber. Have about 40 others to go with them. Never have been a fan of selling any of this stuff.
