mydoddy69 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Kit would be nice. I'm not going to bother with one to be honest. Just can't see myself ever using it to it's full potential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Brightside Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Not mine but a good video of a YETI Edited July 13, 2014 by Mr Brightside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Its a nice vid but its nothing my stampede 4x4 or any 1/10th scale monster truck or truggy couldn't do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Great video, thought it looked at home on a trail like that but it wasn't really that challenging for it. I would like to see it do some real rock crawling without the use of the 2 speed gear box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oodboo Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 At first I liked the look of this but now I'm not so sure. It's not a crawler, too big/fast and not scale enough to be a trail runner and probably not as fast or tough as a buggy/truggy to be a good basher. So I'm losing interest now which is a shame really as I do like the look of it, I just know I wouldn't get much use out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 isn't that what the summit is and that's a great all round rc I don't think for a minute this will ever come close to a summit.. lets face it nothing comes close to the summit you either have one or you don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Axial fanboi folk will love it, the rest of rc-ists will treat it with the disdain and indifference it deserves, whilst driving over it in their Summits, happy in the knowledge that they haven't had to spend a single penny in additional bits to make it tough and two speed. I would rather punch mydoddy repeatedly in the privates, than part with good money for this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I wasn't saying its as good as a summit but its the nearest thing to a summit for use wise. that's just what I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I was just being me, and telling it like it is, Ho Ho! Summit works for me, tried slower stuff and it just doesn't sort me out....some kit looks amazing, guess speed is what I need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) In the US there is a RC Ultra4/KoH style class developing, before this came out everyone was using custom Wraiths and IFS Wraiths Looks awesome fun and this truck is perfect for this style of racing Edited July 14, 2014 by .AJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 After watching that and seeing what there leaning toward being used for i diffidently wont be getting one !. Nothing like the track or bash spot anywhere near me so that makes owning one for me at least a bit pointless.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistonhead Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I'm already thinking about making one into a scale sct if the wheel base is roughly the same. SCX10 axle to narrow down the rear, then i'm sure some shorter suspension arms and cvd's could be bodged/modified to fit to narrow up the front end...

Noj Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 The chassis/shock/rear axle layout lends itself perfectly to an SCT...go on, be daring! I'll subscribe to the thread.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
