smash Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I take it all back been out again with the glamis and my truggy this morning and guess what turn out the glamis can jump pretty well, turns out that I had my rear shockers set up way to hard and to thinner oil in them, I've wound some preloaded off and am now running 40wt oil in them.. The other trick to getting a nice clean jump out her is laying off the throttle just as you hit the jump then she'll glide like an arrow needing very little correction mid air.. I'm now very pleased Only bad thing that happened today was I thought I was filming the lot but I pushed the wrong button on my gopro and ended up with ten useless stills from when I thought I was starting and stopping the action..

JungleS2K Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Not until now. Looks like just a 4 seat body shell and chassis on the Uno underpinnings. Why so much more expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
