I wonder if 1.9 would fit?????

The wheels on it are only 1" in diameter. 1.9's would be doubling that size and it would look kinda "off". It's also a 7mm hex...so a 1.9 isn't going to bolt right on.

Lookin' at that cute little rig with it's innards piled high on the chassis and that little servo dominating the front axle, and then I look at those topless Jeeps, and I just can't see how it's gonna go together and still look remotely scale. :shock: But I'll keep an eye open to see how it's done.

I offered to buy one for my business partners young son. He said "Don't! It'll get lost in the cracks." :mrgreen:

I guess Losi sees a big future in R/C crawling? Cool "thumbsup"

Cheers.

The Revell CJ has doors, a top, and windows in the kit:mrgreen:

If you pick up one of the new Spektrum DX3E Radios (Due here in Dec 2009) you could use it with the BND version of the 1/24th scale crawler and your larger rigs using Spektrum DSM technology receivers.

Or use one of the stock MRC controllers that you can pick up for just about FREE.

Where could these "free" ones be found?8)

Just put up a wanted ad in the classified section. I know I have 3 or 4 of them from the MRC's I have bought. I would have given them away for nothing but now plan on using them for these :mrgreen:

 

[Tuffguy]

Got 2 ordered.............woooohoooo

Found this in mom n dads attic, been hiding up there for almost 30 years. :shock:

It is 1/25 though. Hope I can make it work on my 1/24 Losi when I get it, if not I guess I'll have to get something else. Either way I'm stoked. "thumbsup"

It should be close, if not not it may look like it has "full size" axles under it"thumbsup" If anybody want one of those kits, look for the recent re-issue of "Daisy's Jeep" or the "Hogan's Heros" Jeep kits. It also look like Revell is reissuing the F250 extended cab and GMC Syclone kits too:mrgreen:

Well done Richard. A lot of people was waiting for something like that. Stock? i m sure many will make cool scale crawlers with this car.

BND is also a clever solution.

About broken parts comments as i ve seen here, an external supplier can make mistakes, but i know Richard and all his stuff do their best to take care of their customers. I ve seen it in a crawling event here in Spain last summer.

I ll have to get one of those, or more than one...
Bye

Now I just wish they would hurry up and ship these little suckers out!!

 

[MadForce]

I back ordered one from A-main the day they posted them and when I contacted them on Friday they said mine was the 32nd in line out of 49 they have on order.....WOW. They also said that they expect them by the end of the month maybe. Fingers crossed.

Corey at RPP said mid to lat Nov. He also has them for a killer deal!

As has already been said. I have a 5 gallon bucket full of legos that have been sitting since I was little. I should be able to make quite a course out of those. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I have problems getting to a decent course for the 1/10 crawler and even the MRC is too big for the options I have at hand. This guy is the right size that I can setup a course in the apartment that will push this micro to its limits. I have troubles setting up a course for the MRC indoors that works it fully and is of any length. The 1/10 is even worse to setup for indoors. God its like I'm 5 years old again. At least I can start work on the course now and can hunt for some scale bodies as well.
