I bought another Honcho today from my local Rc shop for my son for his birthday on Monday. He can't wait to get it in the mud and rocks

Thanks will fit it Sunday morning and see how I get on :-)

Well I picked up my new servo a savox sw0231mg and I've noticed it's bigger than the old one. Do I need to modify anything else? Mount? Chassis supports?

A short video driving a small river and rocks a few days ago .

Great progress on the 6x6 it looks great cant wait to see it finished

A short video of a few of us at the Beach

A few pics from a few days ago at the beach On the edge axle twister Trying the tow ropes to gather or move logs etc Dunc was more optimistic this log was soaked and really heavy but the dingo managed to pull it fairly easily

Cool pics mate

Nice pics looks like a fun day out

Thanks for great comments it is a cracking trail spot with a bit of everything . I've just ordered the cvds today aswell as the servo so it should make a great improvement . I went for the Axial ones as looking how well the rest of my truck is built I figure the upgrade stuff should be even better . Also we had a issue with non Axial parts last time we went out so don't want to risk it . Thanks for the advice

Thanks will look in to the servos

A few pics from today Trying out recovery gear

Thank for rest of the positive comments We are going out again tomorrow so might have some more pics tomorrow

I'm going to upgrade the steering servo for a waterproof one . Then I'm about done till stuff starts wearing out lol or I see some more bling or some new wheels and tyres

I've also got a Honcho they are Awesome trucks and so capable out the box I've upgraded to the alloy links and the steering upgrade also changed it to 4 link front and rear at the same time the alloy links can take some abuse I've also added some scale accessories to take a look at my thread .

I've had my Honcho for about a month now I've been adding a few bits as I'm going along . I've stripped the diffs and filled them with waterproof grease .Ive changed the kit plastic lower and upper arms with the axial upgrade metal link kit and added some scale extras Here's some pics Standard form when I first got it . I must admit I'm impressed with how capable it is First bit of rock crawling Honcho Out with Dunc and his dingo Axle twist shot Tow rope added At the beach Roof rack, spade ,high lift jack and more tow ropes Roof rack lights added Logs and roll mats added Wire added for roof lights Roof lights wired A few pics from today Looking down into the fog with another Honcho Gully crawl

I'm looking to upgrade the steering servo on my Honcho with a stronger and waterproof one any suggestions with out spending a fortune ?

Yeah a few going to check out another spot on Sunday that I used years ago . See what that's like

Would be good but I'm away kayaking that day . When is the next meet after the 6th April ?

Great any preference on we're to go ?

Any meet ups for crawlers /scale trucks in the teeside area ?

Thanks for the positive comments on the video and advice on bolting things down most of the bits on the roof rack are strapped down already how did you make your bungee cords ?

How about Wednesday afternoon ?
