Damn...thats a truckload of R/C's

You still have as many R/C's in your possession than I have ever owned.

Do all of them work though? Besides the current down on my G2R, all 5 of my trucks will work. The Nitro's just need air filters cleaned and my 18T needs a charged battery, but otherwise thats it.

Do you ever get around to driving all of them? I barely even touch my T-Maxx anymore...all I usually drive in my G2R or 18T, and when I pull out the nitro's its Jato or Revo...T-Maxx has losts its fun really. I just use it for hardcore offroading, it seems to handle better in the real rough stuff (my revo actually gets thrown around more for some reason).

most work, cant find my x mods as we just moved, and a few cars got broken in the move because i packaged them crappy lol... but yeh i still drive them... rite now most are apart because i got bored so i ripped them arpart and cleaned them and havent pu them back togather hehe

i drive, the pede, micro t, i pu tthe pede tranny in the rs4 and drive that lol.. and thats about it, all the rest sit under the bead because i dont want to drive them... but i know i wont get any money for them so i dont use them

I am sure if you sell the mini quake, mini inferno, and mini t, you can get a decent amount of money. There are plenty of all of them on ebay and they all seem to sellfairly fast. Depending on the condition, I am sure you can get atleast $150 for all three of them. With this money, it should fund for all the spare tires and parts for a little while.

till i want them, then i have to pay 2 times what comes out =(

one thing i have learned is dont sell ur stuff... i know im going to regret the pede... BUT i know it will just sit here and then eventually get parts stollen from and then it isnt worth anything so its just goin now lol

Where do you get all the money from for all the R/C's?

Being 16 its harder than heck to scrape up the money and a good deal has come from working over the summer.

I can't imagine how hard it is at 13.

LOL i worked harder then a lawn mowin person over summer lol i mowed lwans, walked dogs, picked weeds, did chores in my house and others.. so between that me and 3 buddys each made 600 a month!!! HEHE, but i have also been into rc for like 8 years so u know, the revo was the firt batch to come my lhs, and mini the same year and all........... so theres not like i just bought them all

[BP-Revo]

Oh, well, that would explain some lol.

I beleive my Revo was the 2nd or 3rd batch at the LHS. Jato was among the first few batches from Tower though. They got them in stock then they all sold out, then we backordered it and got it.

yeh... im spoiled lol.. but i cant complain LOL works for me =P

but yeh, my newest car is the pede, then my micro t's, i got the first one at my lhs and got another fro x mas, then the half 8, mq, and revo and idk past there lol

I can sort of say the same. But once the E-Maxx came my parents said I was on my own for this hobby. Thats fine I guess...they support my other hobby: full sized cars :027:

same here, they dont pay for me, but like my racin thing, i get my share of money my sisters spend... i dont have to buy 300 pairs of shoes, or other things and all so u know they kinda give me money in tmes like this lol

HOLLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that motor is the size of texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!! WOW

[BP-Revo]

8hp?? That means the motor is like 6000w. There's gonna be a hefty price tag on that.

It seems to be a LMT3060...which is alone like 700 bucks.

it has 4 motor wires to!!!! or does it not????

and yeh lol, i bet 100 bucks it pulls wheelies =P



EDIT, the e hammer is 2600 bucks!!! and yes its the motor u thought it was lol.. theres like 8 wires for it!

[BP-Revo]

Its 6. Thats actually standard on most Lehner motors now. Allows you to change between Delta and Wye connection.

Delta connection is the "standard" connection. Gives the rated KV, etc. Wye gives KV thats 1.73 times less than the rated KV. But it is more efficient and has more torque. In a way this allows you to have two motors in one. This is going to be like my backup for my CRT .5. If it is too fast I will go to Wye orientation, which will reduce KV and slow it down.
