Default Hello from the UK

Hi,
I’m Nick and I’m a crawlerholic*.

I’ve got a Gmade gs02f, and a pile of bricks in the garden

My tinkering time far exceeds my driving time because tweaking things to make them work better (or at least to see the difference) is what I enjoy.

This forum has been a brilliant source of information, and today I finally managed to log in

Expect some newbie and nerdy suspension questions, and if I spell something wrong I WILL defend with the English-English vs American-English argument!

Glad you've joined.

Most of us spend more time working on the trucks than driving them. I think my only truck that's maybe 50 /50 (working / driving) is my super reliable SCX10.3 Bronco. The only work I've ever done on that truck is stuff I wanted to do, except for a cooked, stock motor.

All of my other trucks are like 70 / 30 (working / driving). But we like working on them, driving them, staring at them... So you're in the right place.

Welcome to the site! I enjoy building as much if not more than running RCs so I completely understand.

As far as questions, ask away! That’s what this forum is for.

Consider doing a build/tinkering thread for each of your RCs.

Just remember, they are tires not tyres. Sometimes “tars” if you have a southern accent.

Welcome in!


To post pics here you need to use an image hosing site like Imgur. You'll upload images there and take the links and paste them into posts here.

There's a testing section of the forums if you need it or post right here http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/testing-1-2-3/
