Hi,I use bungies to hold my MMM'd summit when I'm heading up the hills.Just hook 'em up to the carry loop/top of shoulder straps( Above where it'll dig in) and loop 'em through the bumper/A arms.I sewed some straps onto a different back pack,but it got covered in dog poo from the truck :(

Or get a bike designed for hauling.

Here is my Giant Transport. I use it every weekend in the summer to go to the track. Strap the truggy on the front rack, and the pit bag to the rear.

It's a neat bike, because the racks are hinged and can collapse. Very heavy duty. Here it is. In the second pic, it's the center bike (see how the racks can fold down over the rear tire). Pardon the pics with adult content:

Love the first pic !
Thats gettin' R done .

Loving that Transport, definetly seems the best solution. Panniers are a possibility I guess... but it's hard to find a front one for my bike. I'm sure I could whip up something though.

So, panniers that can fit an 10th or 8th scale truck are a possibility... Bye bye student loan :yipi:!

I dont know what kind Mountain Biking you do, but I'd stick with a back pack load if it were me. Putting it on the front and that 10 lb load would greatly impact my ability to lift the front wheel off the ground. Putting it on the back might be dangerous for my family life in crashes.....

Get yourself something along the lines of a stampede or RC10GT.

I do lots of road riding on an XC bike during the week to Uni, other than that I do a bit of Downhill. I can stick to the road and ride like an old lady, refusing to remove tyres from the road if I have to, it's not much of a problem. A backpack just seems more secure and weatherproof to me...

You can always get a backpack designed for skateboarding, they have a big strap on the back to hold skateboards, maybe you could use it to hold water car you want and but the rest of the stuff inside the bag? As for an actual RC, if I was in your position I'd get a 4x4 Stampede, Hyper 10 Truggy, or an 1/8 buggy.

Honestly I've found ways to bike with a hyper st with hpi terra pins an lx1-e and an e-maxx (all with wheels off) all in a regular school bag or one of my huge army bags. It all works out if you pack it well an make sure the zippers won't open when your riding.

Decided on a Revo VXL. Bought another of the Traxxas packs with it, along with a series and parallel connector set. Got the extended rear arms too. Should be here tomorrow, can't wait to give it a blast in the snow!

Couldn't find a reliable answer to this though: Does the Traxxas 2.4GHz use 4 or 8 AA batteries? The manual says four, towerhobbies and other places say eight.

According to the box art it says 4 AAs too, so I'd trust that over towerhobbies. Then again, traxxas may be lying just to annoy you... :lol:

Hi,My traxxas 2.4ghz takes 8 batteries.The losi 2.4's take 4 though :)

Both of mine are 4 AA's. Mine are the "Link" 5 channel versions.

Mine took 4, just sold it

So, got the truck this morning, perfect little thing, great size! However, I got the Traxxas battery and charged it at 1A for about 40 minutes and I was somewhat unimpressed with the power of the truck. Perhaps the burn-in of the motor is the problem, but I tried to charge the battery and the charge light flashed, usually it glows. So I'm thinking there's a problem with the battery... I charged another pack and the performance seemed the same, just seemed like the acceleration wasn't as good as what I'd expected from watching videos of other stock ones. Could be my slipper set quite loose...

Are the standard battery packs really that bad?

1A for 40 minutes isn't a full charge from dead. I would try charging at 2A. Power from the stock battery isn't incredible but it is decent. Also take into account that most of the videos you see, they will be using 2 or 3s lipos, the truck is still stock but it doesn't mean the battery is. Also yes, out of the box the slipper is loose, I had to tighten mine up.
