The G3R chassis is pretty darn stable on 6s until.... -

you add a set of Terapins to it. Got bored and thought I would give them a try on the G3R. Actually a lot easier to handle these 7" tires on the G3R then it is on the Savage XL. Fun tire to bash with, lots of bounce to them. The usual downfalls of a larger tires, rollovers, larger turning radius, etc. The MMM didn't even get a work out on 6s with them. These tires are extremly light for thier size. I haven't weighed them yet but they are lighter then any of the smaller MT size tires I have. It was fun to hit some of the larger jumps that I usually only take with the Savage XL but these gave it enough extra that it didn't slap the ground hard with the chassis.
One of the downfalls of winter in the Pacific Northwest is the early sunsets we get. It dropping fast, couple of weeks ago it was 8:00 - 8:30pm. It more like 6:20pm now and will end up peaking around 3:45pm for winter. So out come all the different ways to see which way your RC is going. This one is the light setup off an old VHS Camcorder on 2s lipo hooked up to the wing.
