jnev's long past due update
 

I have been gone the past couple weeks mostly due to school and then I went on vacation so I had even less time here. Anyway, I have a break from school now, so I should have more time for rc's. :smile:

Anyway, I have two trucks at the moment... a brushless RC10GT and a brushless Revo. The Revo and RC10GT are both 100% finished, but of course, I'll be adding upgrades when I have the money and time, so they are not actually finished. The only thing missing on the RC10GT is the ESC, which I will be getting soon, but for the time being, I will transfer the one from the Revo into the RC10GT. The electronics in each one are in my signature...

Since both trucks are done for the most part, I am now wondering what I should do for my next project... I am open to any idea, but would like them to be nothing like my current cars.

Your pics don't seem to be working for me.

Sounds like you need a buggy or maybe even a truggy :yipi:

I'm leaning toward a 1/8 buggy at the moment, but I'm still undecided. lincpimp - Really? I don't know why they aren't working. They work fine for me..... do you use Firefox?

I can't see any of the pics either.
Is this a permissions issue from the source?

Yea, I can't see em either. I use Firefox though.

I cant see the pics either

But I say a .5 like mine =)

Pictures didn't work for anybody, so here are the links. Feel free to post the actual pictures here though. Hopefully the links at least work. :lol:

Links don't seem to work...

Yeah, your links are not working either.

scratch that, I got them!

Yah, i had to edit them twice after realizing the links don't work.

You had a 1/8th buggy before didn't you? So you'll know if it's something you'll want again.
Why did you sell the buggy?
Do you want a car for general off road and a bit of on road bashing?

I did have a 1/8 buggy, and I really regret selling it. I needed to sell it to fund for the Revo, and although the Revo is a heck of a truck for jumping and in the dirt, it doesn't really suite me for general street bashing, which my 1/8 buggy did perfectly. And I am looking for something for on road and off road, but I will consider anything. I even started thinking about getting a HPI Baja 5b SS, but then again it is 2wd so traction will start becoming a problem with BL power.

There are so many options... the main ones being at the moment (all brushless):
1) Losi 8ight
2) Associated RC8
3) EXT CRT.5

Any others?

If I were to get an 1/8th Buggy, it'd be an 8ight for sure. I'd personally say CRT.5 though.

Its fast, it handles extremely well, and its quite durable. The only problem I see is it being similar to your GT, since in the end its a 4wd version of it (though it is so many levels higher...but I'm just saying in super broad terms).

I agree with you there. If I could do it all over again, I'd definitely go with the CRT.5. But I got the GT for free. And now upgraded just about every part which I could have used that money spent toward a CRT.5. I think that it is between those two right now... the 8ight and CRT.5. Now to choose which one.........

Go for the CRT..

I vote .5 also

Its such a fun car, Id have to say its been the funnest bash car I have ever had, and if you want to go to your track, put on the tires you need for the track, and its golden
