OK, new guy here. I've been into RC's off and on for 20 years now. My first was Kyosho Ultima buggy back in 1987. Yeah I'm that old. I've got a T-Maxx, Savage, Savage Flux, Stampede and my latest and favorite, an Axial SCX10-TR. I'm looking to build a scale rig soon. I've been lurking, reading and learning.

I'm Rob (go figure). I'm almost a mechanical engineer (this August it's official ). I have an HPI rs4 that I did some work on. I had fun with that thing, but the whole nitro setup is really finicky, and more time wrenching than cruising. Plus, I can't find an area big enough, flat enough and open enough to make any use of 2nd gear. So I started looking at this forum a while back when I picked up a Traxxas Nitro Sport for $1 (less tires). I figured a crawler would be an excellent application of my mechanical engineering background, and would burn up some of the free time that I have. So I decided to build my first one from scratch. Take my time, do it right kinda thing. I picked up axles, beadlocks and tires already. Trying to figure out what I want to do with electronics by reading up here and acting like a sponge. Someday I too will have a build thread :-P

Names Matt, Live just outside Ottawa, Ontario Canada. Just bought myself a Axial AX-10 RTC and love it. I have done all the easy budget stuff. Plans i have is a custom 4 link, Rovers, and then start to replace the finicky electronics. I'm thinking Pink compound Rovers. I can wait till they become available since the snow won't be gone any time soon. Cheers |

Hey all new to this type of r/c I use to be into it in to 80s and 90s (R/C 10, Blackfoot, Boomerang, Grasshopper). I just picked-up a used AX-10 setup ok accept for the Integy shocks (have a pare of losi's on order). So anyways I live in Cloverdale Ca. about 80 miles north of San Fran. Hope to get to some GTG's and maybe a comp or two just to watch and see how this all works. Oh yea I've been into 1:1 rock crawling for about six or seven years. I have a nicely built CJ7.

Hey, I'm Dave from Victoria B.C. Canada. Been wheeling 1:1's for sometime but discovered R/C Crawling recently and on an impulse buy, bought an Axial and have been blowing through cash like a fat kid through a buffet ever since. Being a heavy equipment operator there is always tons of great rock around so it makes for a fun lunch break to do some wheeling. You got a great site here, very informative. Within the first few posts I read most of my questions were answered. Thanks eh! |
