Rally project.....with a bit of a difference. **UPDATED 25-8-13, new pics and vid!**

Fantastic looks like a nippy little bugger, is that the stock electrics? Also beautiful dog

[DreXeL]

Yep, stock brushless system on 2S. It's quick without being over powered.

[wiggles]

looks awesome, rally look and with a proper off road chassis.

[Snwy]

looks nice love the paint scheme on the body

[Dom C]

Looks fantastic, that was one quick build!

That's a really nice rally car, love it.

Decided to see what it jumps like. The only ramp I have is too big for this really, it's the one I use to launch my 1/8 stuff into orbit, but the little rally car took it really well, here's a vid of my son jumping it:

Considering that ramp is too big for it really, it jumps brilliantly. When I tried launching it off that ramp as a SCT it was just a case of launching it and hoping for the best, and it would rarely land cleanly due to parachuting and pretty much no control, but the rally shell and smaller wheels have made it jump much more cleanly. I sails through the air nicely and just a little dab of the brakes brings the nose down for a clean landing

Cracking fun this little car

[Mrchippy]

Looks spot on mate

[cazxr2]

Looks ace

[(-:AD:-)]

very nice

[Carpmart]

Impressive indeed!

 

I'm a little worried that your local zoo is missing a wolf!  It appears to be in your garden buddy!

This looks ace Ben! Btw I think i've still got your old number, so give us a quick text, need a catch up

[Frederik]

Really nice! Love the stance, your signature pic is way cool with the rear suspension compressed and countersteering

[DreXeL]

Thanks! No real updates to report, just been driving it and enjoying it. I absolutely love the way it handles, especially on loose dirt. Get on the brakes to initiate a slide, then back on the power for lovely controllable drifts. Despite my silly 1/8 stuff this is probably my most 'fun' RC at the moment

Will be taking to a BMX track tomorrow, the track I'm going to has a small 'beginner' track that is ideal for smaller RCs, can't wait
