Oh yeh, and that vid also makes me really want an XT8

JORDAN!!!
Thank man.. The magnified glass was tricky

The XT8 it BAD ASS (FLAT OUT). If and when you go out and get a Truggy, you really do need to consider the XT8, (Sower, Cornolio, Dafni, Rschoi and Mr. Monster) all have them..

A scratch build 1;5th scale with baja 5t body that has dual machine guns and hellfire rocktes? :):) :) :) :) :) :)

You know u want to...

Hey TT!!
Thanks for stopping bye, my next project will be 1/5 scale (how did you know?? ) I'm thinking about mounting a mini gun on it!.. LOL.LOL.RALF…. Hey don’t put it past me!.. The only fricken problem is they are all Airsoft! BBBOooooo.. IE ( NO visual damage) like the paintball, but it will hold the 8 shoot revolving grenade launcher!.. FYI, fully loaded the gun weighs 18 lbs.. (holly CRAP!) BUT…. It shoots 140 paintballs in 6 seconds.

Have a great one and thanks again for leaving comments.. And they were even positive!! Right on!!! Thanks…

Hellfire rockets? Nah, TOW missiles!!! Machine guns??? You need an Avenger 30mm gatling gun!

THAT”S awesome!! FLAT OUT!!! And quite the quwincedence !?! I’ve been doing a lot of research on mini guns and have found 2 that will actually fit in / on a 5th scale, they shoot 2000 Airsoft 6mm shoots per minute, they are between 16 and 25 lbs and they are 23’ – 33” long. They also start around $3,200 and go up to $4,500.00 (YIKES!). So when I added the cost of the gun with the cost of the build itself, (throw in another 2-3K) that would put me at just under 7k!!??

I'm still trying to justify it to myself!, but with one unfinished bathroom, the economy, Christmas and property taxes coming it getting real hard to make the plunge into it!. or I could at least what I'm trying to sell myself on is buy it part by part, take a fricken year to complete it, spread it out over time.. This might actually be doable, What do you think guys??? Should it be all in or bust Vrs a year build ??
