hpi bronco body/traxxas rustler

all you guys are idiots


i said befor that this is an old thread alot of thing can happen between the time i bought my rustler and now


i have a trinity bat

but i just recently bought the lipo 7 cell like on friday or somethin

Your the fkn idiot:shock: Maybe 7 volts is what your trying to say?? Specifically a 7.4 volt...

Just like some of the other guys said, most of us have or have had a 2wd stadium truck so we don't need to drive yours to see what it can do. Its a 2wd stadium truck not a crawler not a rock racer not a mudder not a scaler, its a go fast fun ass truck to bash around.

Stop flying off the fkn handle and saying we are all idiots and telling us to f off, the only thing that will get you is a swift kick in ass and booted off this site for good (might not be a bad thing:flipoff:)

I think its cool that a kid is really into his r/c and your mom supports your hobby, better than sitting on the couch and getting fat too early in life. But you f'd that all up and now your just another dipshit punk kid who thinks he knows everything and we know nothing. So go f yourself junior:flipoff:

I still call BS on the 7-cell lipo... Either you have your information all wrong, misunderstand what you really purchased, or you're the idiot.

Here's what you do since you say you can't take a pic: Tell us the info on the battery pack or individual cells. Most of us are smart enough to figure out what you truly have. Voltage numbers can say a lot... And with mah numbers and even the cost of the pack, we can figure it out even better. List as much info.

If it really is a LiPo pack, and not a NiHm/NiCad, I will be the first to apologize.

And, like others have said.... Don't ask for comments if you really don't want them. If someone doesn't like it, take what you want from that, but move on. Quit b!tching/crying about it.

You're just another dumbass 14 year old who thinks he knows it all but in all reality doesn't know jack sh!t:lol:

look i already told you guys i dont care what you think anymore it over ok you guys win i give up i dont knowwhy you guys think its so impossible for me to have a lipo 7 cell but i dont care anymore ok its over like i said i dont fell like arguing with people that i dont even know ok so if it makes you sleep better at night you can all can me an idiot,asshole,mother****er,whatever ok i dont care anymore
why can we just all get along and just keep our thoughts or at least the bad one to ourself and that would solve everybodys probem"thumbsup"
 
I have no problem with the truck. Im just wondering if the stock electronics will hold up to a 7 cell lipo.. Dont want to see ya tear up your truck for no reason ya know...

Heck, if im gona tear up mine, i want it to be from some awsome midair collision with something much heaver, not from a smoked esc from too much voltage... But thats just me..
 
All you guys are idiots, buying and building all these expensive crawlers things, all you had to do was buy a cheap Rustler, it out crawls all you guys anyway.

Apparently you just need a friggin' 26 volt battery to make it do amazing things. The stock XL5 can totally handle that.

Hand-applying gobs of mud on the body helps lower the COG as well.

Maybe you are running a 7 cell "Stick" pack? Just man up and say you made a mistake?
Not to mention you would have no room to mount a 7C Lipo? It would fry your stock motor,
and your ESC! In the pict's you posted you are running stock shocks as well. I posted these
</pre>questions before and you didn't answer any of them? Proof is the name of the game on here;-):lol:
 
Wrong esc Kenny. What a complete dumbass you are ;)!

I think the specs for the XL-5 are about the same except it can handle a lower turn motor (about 15t if I remember correctly). Rustlerguy the balls in your court, either start posting proof, or STFU and crawl back into your little hole.
 
I always do that after 3am;-):lol:

Ok guys, I think we might have to eat our words and apologize to rustlerguy. Apparently there is a 7 cell lipo for that the XL-5 can handle. I wasn't able to find a picture of the 7 cell version, just the 5 cell:

My apologies to you rustlerguy. Can't wait to see this demon up and running.
