Default First RC crawling Vid!

I am a newb to RC crawling in general, I have a 1:6 Nylint. I know some of you frown upon them, but for $70 new in the box(2 weeks ago), I couldn't pass it up. Maybe around x-mas I will purchase an Axial, but till then......

This video is my 4th time crawling my RC, it's a really cool location, and I think I did ok. 1 major obstacle was that the rear band was slipping the entire time, so the rear was only pulling about 30%. I now have new bands and will hopefully get them in tonight and it wont give me any more trouble!

With that all said, enjoy!

I will post another vid in about a month, and compare the two for improvements in driving skill!


Any helpfull criticism, or tips is appreciated. If you look at any of my other videos, you can see that I am fairly familiar with offroading with the 1:1, we go out wheeling all the time.

:-P I remember when I had my 1:6 Nylint. It was what got me started in all this. Didn't think they still sold them.

Not a fan of the music.

It's got me wanting to upgrade already, the steering seems to get weaker everytime I use it. They dont sell them anymore, I found this one on Craigslist new in the box for $70. I agree, the musice does kinda suck, the second song is good, but the techno was a mistake!
