| 1/8 Integy Irock 2.4 4ws 4x4 Project $245
I see how people bash integy all the time but id just like to see what about this truck is and isn't true. Let me start off by saying I'm not going into any competitions or anything like that I just needed something slow and big for my son whose almost 3 and I to play with and something we both can enjoy on the hills by our house. I have a brushless traxxas slash which is fun but way to fast for him to play with. Now only mods I have planned for now is the parma silverado 1/8 body and looking into getting a promatch battery for longer run times. Ill be updating this thread with videos and if I run into problems also. Last edited by NORCAL SS; 09-05-2012 at 02:22 PM. |

thing is great!!!!!!!!!!!! we have been bashing it with my son and it goes thru it all. Im going to make another hole in the wheels just so air goes out better traction. overall im very happy with it. the only thing im thinking about getting is better servos but im new to this hobby not sure which i should go with. im going to order the pro match 4200 battery 2 packs so that should give it more power ill take some vids in the garage later tonight. Drilling 2 extra holes in the wheels helped nicely. vids in action http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showt...34#post2664234 Last edited by THX_138; 09-05-2012 at 07:56 PM. |
