I need to buy one so I can stop carrying my O8s when it hits LVC and tow the damn thing..!!

New body for the VS4-10 Pro……painted by a friend of mine from Nevada. It’s a weathered version of the original Scout tribute I painted.

I went trail hiking with my son last weekend.

@SlooDon
I like those wheels you have on the VS4-10, what are they, China specials or something high end ??

 

[MAVERICK@2]

My son and I finished up the summer comp 3 part series on Saturday. No podium finish’s but we both completed the c2 course but timed out on open class

Then today we had our fist road course comp it has been a Rc filled weekend

Was able to get a Arrma rig into the road course comp

Crawler coarse looks awesome.

It’s great

Only 2 miles from my house and it’s in the city park so it’s always open to use

Brian, the wheels on the Grey Phoenix are 8 lug 5 slots from KNK and have been cerakoted white. The wheels on the weathered Pro are Vanquish and also cerakoted.

I like nice wheels!

Same'ol chassis, new setup. Ready for some crawling.

Couple of new releases this week.

Element Enduro Bushido Kind of reminiscent a Suzuki Samurai

Axial SCX10 III Pro-Line 1982 Chevy K10

​

 

[BashingBrian]

I like the look of the Axial K10 but not so much the Element Bushido, also is it me or do they both just look cheap with no inner wheel wells, no interiors and lexan bodies.!!
Hard pass for me, I'm still holding out for the 1/6 Honcho and the Highlift TRX4 in the UK ( that reminds me, I still need to finish my Marlin TF2 )
This year has/will been/be an expensive RC year so far..!!

Nice retro looking wheels no doubt.
I have RC4WD wheels for the most part. Some chineasium's as well. But VP wheels seem to be the High end stuff. With Crawlers I never see any difference performance wise as long as they are Beadlocks. Price and the License Branding of VP $Method$ wheels being more for the scale looks. VP in general as a brand for Crawlers rule IMHO.

Capra or Bomber?
What's a better rig and why?

Capra or Bomber?

1/10 scale Capra has 4 wheel steering if that is a feature that interests you.

I've never had a Bomber but, Capra is a crawler, Bomber is a rock racer. Capra has portals, dig and metal suspension links. I think the bomber had plastic links but not 100% sure.

 

[MAVERICK@2]

Yes 1 is a bouncer more like a basher rig

Other capra is a comp style crawler it can come with dig or 4 wheel steer

Better way to tell is what are you wanting to do with it

Also Capra can come in a kit version and we all know that’s a great option

Capra only takes shorty packs fyi

Thanks guys.
I'm not really looking as much as thinking. haha
Racer and crawler...ok I got it.
I'm not looking for opinions based on actual experience only as
reading knowledge can be just as helpful at times.

If...IF I were to consider getting one it would be more of a do it all kind of rig
so I guess the Bomber would be the got to?

With that said, what's your guys thoughts on the Ryft?
