Semi noob here, longtime lurker (about a year). Really got into rc last year this time. Got a cheap Litehawk for xmas, that chewed through parts, family driving .From there is snowballed 1 more s911 same as litehawk, then a bit later a Wraith and a Yeti Score in 1 shot. Then we got the girls a 4x4 Stampede, then was a arrma granite , and just finished my first kit an SCX10 ii. So a big year, for car requsition. Apparently I'm not to buy anymore for a bit Wife says parts now for awhile, but had last 2 weeks off so went on a road trip to another hobby shop in the valley and ask my wife "Tires and wheels would be ok right" Well $365 later (few scale parts and something for the girls to keep them happy. Told the guy not to tell me how much outloud the bill was lol Anyways a quick blurb about my short rc past!

Yes....another Newbie here, sort of. I had a Losi Comp Crawler 8-9yrs ago , but never really did much with it because life things happened, so I put it up only to be forgotten about for several years. I order a new Axial Wraith yesterday and was digging through some old RC stuff out in my garage to so what I still have or didn't have, and low and behold, there was the Comp Crawler in the bottom of a plastic tote..lol. Now it looks like I'll have two crawlers to play with and build up. So much has changed in my time off, and I have forgotten so much that I'm going to have to lean on some of you more experienced guys and gals for advice and answers. Anyways, thanks for having me aboard!

Howdy!! I'm a newbie to the r/c crawler world. I live in Buda, Tx...just south of Austin. I was really into the r/c hobby back in the late 80's and 90's when you had to build just about everything. That was part of the fun. I had a Tamiya Bruiser amongst a whole host of other Tamiya cars. Last car I had was the HPI RS4 MT Baja Bug. I still have it and am now updating with all new electronics and motor. Now that kids are getting older, they are getting into the r/c hobby too....so dad needed a new toy. I just bought one of the new Axial Trail Honcho's. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet, but it looks like it is a pretty capable rig out of the box. Curious what I should be looking to upgrade first. Right now, the first items I'm considering are the Pro-Line F250 body and possible swapping tires out with SuperSwampers. |

New guy from Maine. Joined the forum a while ago thinking I would get into RC cars and it never happened. I decided to pick up a used one this weekend I'll be getting a Gmade Sawback and hoping this forum will provide me good information on upgrades and modifications. I know absolutely zero about this Hobby!

Hi guys, I'm Pat. I'm in Pittsburgh, I have a Traxxas Stampede that I've neglected for a while, an Axial SCX10 Deadbolt that I bought last spring and am just now starting to mod after driving it stock for a while, and I just bought a 3Racing Sakura D4 RWD kit - I know it's not a crawler, but since I drift 1:1 and am enjoying the SCX10, I figured I'd try RC drifting as well. RCCrawler has come up with good information on many of my google-searches for tips/ideas/etc with the SCX10, so it's about time I join and say Hi! |

| Re: Attn: NEWBIES POST HERE<<<<<< Yes it is a ready to run set up with two extra sets of tires A battery, controller and battery charger. Unfortunately some of the original parts been removed including the body and I am hoping that once I have access to the classifieds I can find an original body and bumpers and other parts to put it back to more Factory looking.

Hi, I am Gonzalo from Spain. I am new to the forum but not to the hobby. I have been designing, constructing and piloting RC cars, planes and helicopters. I designed my first RC car when I was 13 years old and that was 35 years ago... I lately come interested on Rock-Crawlers, mainly on the superclass, because I think it is the more technically advanced. Already started a design/building thread here: Crazy axles idea design My mother tong is not English, so please forgive me if you find errors on my posts, hope they are understandable. |
