Pics , your other RC Cars ( Not Arrma )

[GMballistic]

Just finished the main part of another speed runner RC project I've been working on which is a 1/12th scale Serpent S120 LTX. Hoping to run it in the "Mini Class" at ROSSA UK this year.

Custom made by myself extra wide carbon fibre battery/electronics tray and redesigned carbon fibre shock mount. Took more time than I thought trying to re-work this little car to fit a 3S battery and make everything else fit.
I've a Proforma 1/12th scale GT body shell ready for it but I haven't had time to trial fit and paint that yet so may add pics again once that's done.

you have some fat tyres there, should have plenty of traction.

Losi Db pro, just got it a few weeks back. What a great lil truck!?

Thanks and I hope so.

It's small compared to my Arrma 1/8th and 1/7th scale but speed wise the battery/motor/gearing combo should be good for over 100mph so it's going to need all the traction it can get.

There's got to be more ...

My Tekno SCT410.3. I use a senton body on it for now though

 

[arrma_tigger]

Bring 'em out.

 

[GMballistic]

Made some minor revisions to my 1/12th scale Serpent speed runner in order to get the body fitting nicely as the ESC with the fan attached was just too high so the fan has gone.
I've also added some weight in a couple of places to try and balance it out as well as keep the nose down when the speeds get higher. Time will tell if that works or not.

I've done a marble type effect on the shell using Tamiya brilliant silver, Tamiya fluorescent orange and backed with Tamiya white PS paints.

I haven't seen one of these run in a long time - but they look great!

Nice buggies!

Wife got me the scx24 for my b-day last week:

Have only put 3 packs through it around the house so far. Needs to be about twice as fast for what I do, but it's still amusing. I haven't done anything to it yet other than pull the rear diff cover off to see how my new wiha .05mm screwdriver fit, then put some red-n-tacky in there.

Redcat Kaiju. Picked it up a few weeks ago and I love it. Broke a rear carrier hub on a particularly awkward/bad landing but otherwise no issues.

 

[Armarookie43]

My bashers for the day = xmaxx 8s, Maxx 4s, Outcast 6s, Kraton 6s, and the new kid on the block, Kaiju 6s. Sorry two Arrmas are in the mix ?.

I didn't realize how big the maxx 4s was. I thought it was a hair larger than the stampede 4x4... seeing it next to the 6s kraton and outcast 6s really makes me want one again! If only I didn't have my stampede... lol!

Yeah it's got the widemaxx kit installed, steel widemaxx driveshafts, 17mm aluminum hexes and the tires from my other Kaiju. It sure is a durable vehicle indeed. Crazy expensive, but tough as nails. ?

Got our grandson his very own R/C Monster Truck.

It's a little "1/18th Scale" truck, and he loves it dearly.

Thanks. The only other bashers missing in there is my truggified Typhon 6s and my other Kaiju, which I'm using as a spare part vehicle for the moment. Oh yeah and my crawlers, which are a TRX4 sport and an axial scx10 II blazer. The crawlers are so much fun on the dry river beds. I'll take pictures of those next.

That's fantastic.
Great to share the hobby with family and the younger generation.

Someone said they discontinued the Dromida line
I hope that's not true as they are pretty good beginner vehicles.
