[t-maxxracer32]

after the long time ive been on here ive always wanted to see everyones RC cars.

everyone always talks about them but i like putting pictures to the people i talk to (if someoen changes their avatar i usually have no idea who they are)

heres my xt8




neu 1515 1.5d
mgm 16018
4s FP 25c lipos

Here are my 2.5, specs are in my sig.

Brushless Mini-t


What will be a brushless savage when I get the new FLM forward tranny chassis and can afford electronics.


And the one you guys hate, the mess maker savage.

My Mini T with mamba 6800 on 5s lipo (119k max rpm, dont expect this to last too long)


My Dark Impact


My Yusa conversion



My Rustler

[MTBikerTim]

That's a crazy mini-t. Surely 3s on that 6800 is fast enough. Can the quark take 5s?

Nice trucks though.

Thanks.
The quark 33 takes 5s fine, it doesnt seem to have the heat issues I hear about from the bigger quarks.
This is on the way to replace that 6800:

It is very good truck . Really like the LRP Shark Factory Team Kit version as it comes with all the hopups including LRP only steel CVDs that use nuts to secure wheels and not screw as Duratrax version uses.

With Permax 400/4D and 2S lipo it's a beast. For very tight tracks the buggy is bit better as it's more agile but ST handles bumps way better.

It is best 1/18 truck there is in the market - even the RTR version runs very well. Ability to fit full size servo is a huge benefit (i run mini Futaba S9650 because of weight saving tho)

Also it's sold worldwide (Duratrax Vendetta, FTX Blaze, LRP Shark, Anderson/Yokomo MB-4) so aftermarket support is great and you can get everything that needs to be updated for better handling and durability.

Here are my two trucks at the moment. I plan on adding one more in the near future though.... but not sure which one yet.

Would you say its better than the Kyosho Mini Inferno ST? I was looking to get one and really like the Kyosho since it has sealed diffs, tunable with diff fluid.

The kit version (others as option) has ball diffs so they can be tuned more easily. It is clearly superior in handling compared to MI as an average driver as me in his first season keeps up with guys that have been racing 1/18 trucks for years. if i weren't afraid of the brutal speed I could be winning :)

MI is not bad truck but requires lots of investments to be competitive.

Also Mi has split battery compartment so you need to move motor to the other side to be able to use long LiPo packs instead of standard Mi saddle packs.

Vendetta also has 12mm hex adapters as standard, MI mas 8.something mm and has some issues with 12mm adapters and 1/10 onroad size wheels.

Here's a picture of my collection. I forgot an old Duratrax Axis that I haven't run in a while though.

[JERRY2KONE]

Now that is just plane showing off. Nice collection JerryF504. Looks like you have been having a lot of fun. I just got my first Heli for Christmas. It is a cheapy though so I can start out softly. It is a 2HP Apache chopper with Lipo power. I did not want to spend too much until I get the hang of it. My boys have two mini choppers and they are really good at flying them. So if they can do why can't I, right??? Your trucks look great & we can tell that you take great care of your gear. Great work Man.

I have 4 SuperMaxx trucks under construction right now. I hope to finish all of them in the next couple of months so I can start playing with them. Each one will sport a different powser set up for my own curiosity, but all of them are built with that bulletproof mentality in mind. Nothing but metal construction through and through, with brushless motors, Lipo's and 333oz servos. These things rock.

The old TXT-1 project:



The Gmaxx project:



My first was a Tamiya Madbull- I put a 17t Yokomo Prostock2 motor in there... did nothing but spinouts, but the diff held up okay.
