Bashing is a way of life.
Day one: Super excited to get it unboxed.
I already bought batteries from my local hobby store. Fully charged so I take it out to a school nearby with a soccer field and dirt track around it. I have a blast just getting used to this beast.
This thing turns heads, I had a group of kids, 10yo maybe, very interested asking me all sorts of questions about it. Few dads came over just to watch. Not going to lie, felt really good about my purchase at this time.
I soon get used to flat land control. Decide to start hitting some of the hills around the field. Get a good 2-3 well executed jumps. The last one I sent it for a tumble... I heard it break. No surprise really, this thing is a monster. And my buddy had broke his upper control arm doing less than I did.
I shattered the lower, the upper was not looking good either.
Local hobby store closes soon, it's a half hour drive to get there. I wanna rush there to see if they have parts in stock. But honestly I can't really justify it.
Call it quits for the day. The group of kids watching me are more bummed than I am.
I get home and order 2 RPM sets for both left and right. Again my buddy already broke his right upper. So I'm also ordering for him. Now it's just a waiting game.
