one complaint, do you not get stickers with the goodies?



gotta find someone to haul it to south austin now..

Why do you need stickers? I've seen cars/trucks that were plastered with the things. But that's all they had.

that's cool, but if you haven't noticed mines not all stickers...

I like supporting the companies that build the badass **** that I have on my rig(if i can call it that?), and other kick ass junk I carry.

PSC
Ballistic Fab
Trail Gear
Power Tank
now Ruff Stuff
soon to be Reid Racing.

let me drive your truck and then you can have Urandamans Custom Body Work mod and ill make you a sticker...ill make it big enough to cover the dents

haha, and the broken glass? a sticker front windshield would be a cool mod.

ill wrap it in cellophane.. it sticks to pots and pans real good.. it will work for a windshield too haha

send me some more pics of your truck, cell ones suck

I bet if you call up the companies and tell them what you just bought and that you want to support them they will send some stickers your way.

you looking for someone to haul your truck?

yep

That diff. cover looks like it could contain a nuclear blast. Nice choice, sucks you didn't get stickers. If you use the company you should get some stickers. This reminds me I need to get ahold of Bilstein and get some stickers, what company wouldn't like free advertisement?

PSC sells stickers, so the first order i bought 1 and it came with 2 more for free.. the second order i placed didn't come with any..

you can't win haha.


and yea the diff cover looks like it'll take a hell of a beating.. that and being the cheapest on the market sold me!

is that an rc rock crawler you have there?

yep :scool: its pretty fun to play with aswell, i need some aluminum links and a new shock though lol. I want to get a 'Mog body for it.

its got functional bead locks, and an upgraded all metal steering servo.

thats cool. rc stuff is fun. never made it to trucks, but have done boats and helicopters

this is the first RC truck I haven't lost interest in, in under a week lol

why is this in off-topic?

looks good.

i didn't know where to put it.. I just wanted to take some pics of my goodies haha

I'm surprised you went with the RTR axial. What links are you going to get? The red aluminum ones from a Traxxas Revo?

Before you go crazy with mods for that thing do yourself a favor and buy the nicest electronics you can afford (ditch the am/fm and go with Spektrum of Fasst, LiPO, brushless, titanium gear servos). You will be happy you did, it makes a world of difference. I used to be real big into nitro and brushless RC...

You need to get you some nitro flowing in your veins. Those rock crawlers are sweet, but I'd rather fly over the rocks than crawl up them!

What engine does it have?? In my traxxas i have the 2.5 racing engine.. damn thing flys lol. But it needs to be fixed, my tuning needle for the idle is messed up.

we actully lowered the crawl ratio.. making it slower the day i got it.

I'm gonna get the links made for it? the axial ones, I'm just waiting on them to get the 'rod ends' in stock.. my friend who I sent to buy it bought the RTR not the one you have to build so I cant just unscrew the plastic links and put in aluminum ones like i would have been able to do. http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/shop/ind...roducts_id=842 kinda like those.

I was told brushless motors dont do well at slow speeds, along with nitro ones. Instead of more power I'll get a t-case thats a lower gear ratio :scool: I already have a metal command servo.

As for remote controllers.. that kinda money will buy me a front drive shaft for my real truck so I'll pass for now :scool: when i do upgrade controllers I'm gonna get one that can control front digs and rear steer, idk how many channels that is..

then tires, either 'Claws' or 'Boggers'

or these lol
http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/shop/ind...oducts_id=1323

lets see, I want to relocate the battery packs to the axles.. I want that Uni-Mog body,

sounds like fun. Uni-mog would be cool

Oh, alright. I just remember seeing a bunch of people using the other ones when the axial first came out.

Brushless motors are better at everything then brushed, they just cost a lot more and are a little more finicky with the gearing sometimes. I think Novak still makes a brushless specifically for crawlers. Nitro is horrible for crawlers, correct.


You should look into the RC forums, you can usually get some really good tips and knowledge from them. Hobby shops tend to be wrong most of the time, if you look on forums you can usually find cheaper/better solutions and upgrades.

This is the Pirate4x4 of RC crawlers, LOTS of good info there http://www.rccrawler.com/
If you haven't already, you should check it out.

yea.. minus the part about trying to save money. but its just as expensive :hypnotize lol
