Jammin CRT .5 Project

[riceman]

I was able to get mine out to the track last week and put a couple packs through it. I also ran my nitro GT2 that day. I must say that the 12th scale truggy outhandles the 2WD Stadium truck in every way. So forgiving it almost makes me forget how bad a driver I really am :027: My first lap with the .5 was a bit disappointing. I broke a plastic ball end on my front turnbuckle on the first jump. Completely my fault as I landed the jump nose down. Luckily I had a spare that happened to fit. No other issues after that.

So here are the pics of the now dirty truck


Luckily the Kyosho spur did not have any fitment issues. I did not need to raise the diff mounts or dremel the opening. It's close but I have not seen any evidence of bidning or rubbing yet.


My "not as nice as Brian's" battery tray. Temporary and I will eventaully redo it to put some tabs in front and back but this gets me up and running for now.


With the 2s2p 8000mah lipo installed.


First lap and first real jump at the track and I broke the plastic ball end on the letf from turnbuckle. Luckily I had a suitable RPM replacement in my sapres.

A couple minutes of back yard bashing. Apoligies for the video quality. The only cameraman I had available was my 7 year old son.
