@Tate1122, I've been using their bearings for years. Nothing fancy, decent quality, great value.

The problem with a heatsink less fan setup is if you go fast enough its like if the fans weren’t on i believe. I haven't bought any KC-RC aluminum upgrades yet.
im a big fan of WAG rc servos. They are a step up to the amazon counter parts but better quality at a similar price

is stainless steel screws softer and weaker than the stock screws?

 

[fozzy71]

is stainless steel screws softer and weaker than the stock screws?

Yes, according to everything I have read, I regret buying all those $35 SS RCScrewz and Dynamite kits for my Traxxas cars.

 

[Moonstonemike]

is stainless steel screws softer and weaker than the stock screws?

Yes. A regular 12.9 bolt has a roughly 3 times or higher yield strength then a standard stainless screw of 18-8 or 316.

Carbon fiber towers installed. Had to dremel out a bit of the holes in the tower to get the @3d-rc.myshopify.com wing mounts in, but overall an easy upgrade

I'm ordering one next week to go with my 2' one! I got over $600 in "Visa points" so it'll be free!!

 

[Smilinbri]

The ramp price includes shipping. It's only 290 for largest ramp shipped. If it was 400 I'd probably rethink it and still do it but I'd be .

Went to buy the ramp and total said $390. Emailed them and they confirmed it is $390 for US. Sucks...not sure I wanna pay that.

Wow wtf, i don't want to pay that either. That just ruined my day

Really sucks it seems like no one in the states wants to make a good portable ramp for a decent price.

Me too. I was all excited and ready to buy it!

For the big one that's $390 CAD.

That's only like $290 in US dollars (as of 2/27), so isn't that a little better? Not sure what your bank or credit card company has for currency exchanges or what they might charge you, but if it's not that bad, then i might consider it....? At $290 US shipped? worth a second look.

gawd damit @Smilinbri stop giving me heart attacks!!!


I was planning on ordering it in a month or so but I went ahead and did it now since I dunno how long it will take to get here. Using paypal it would have been 300$, using my credit card directly it was only 288. Paypal can screw right off.

I was looking at my visa point too, and it got me thinking... I might be getting one myself, so we can combine the ramps to make a mega 96" ramp meet up!!!
