CRT.5 forum?

[E-Revonut]

First want to say that I think this is by far the most informational forum available in the RC world! I spend countless hours each week on here looking for info and trying to provide for anyone that I can. With all the time I spend on here I knew it was only a matter of time before I wound up building a crt.5 as I think it's one of the most popular trucks amongst the members of RCM. So I did build one in July. Doing so I was looking for information on here and I see that there are many others that keep popping up with questions about this great little truggy. My thought is that there should be a seperate section dedicated to it just as there is for the T/E Maxx, Revo, Jato, and savage. Hope an administrator or Mike sees this and feels the same. I really think it would be a big help to many people on here and might even spark some more people to build one up!

I vote for this also!

Everyone has a crt.5, its such a fun car, and its cheap, or as expensive as you want to do it up, but in all ways, its extremely fun!

I agree, I just bought one a week ago and finished tonight installing the electronics...the 50 series Medusa does not like NiMHI batts...I put in a 3300kv w/a mm esc and to say the least she would hardly run. I put in an almost dead li-po and she sprang to life for a few seconds.

My crt.5 has Mike's 40mm ext chassis kit

Just wait till you guys see mine. Its by far one of the most one off crt.5's around!

Need to order some alu for the chassis, and im going to be in biz!

I will do some mods. on mine as funds allow...minor stuff though. I really like the suspension arm kit that Mike sells..

So far, mine are pretty big mods

The arms are nice, I dont like the idea of alu though, I wish they were plastic or something

I'm planning on keeping mine simple in hopes of maintaining reliability. Will be installing a new, stronger welded aluminum battery box tomorrow night. Also when I tear it down before the bash I'm going to be putting the stock rtr shocks on the back, right now I don't know what shocks are on it just that they werent intended for this and they suck IMO.

I have big bore all around on mine. The front ones are plastic

That was mine from last Xmas, version 2 is soon!

Thats some good camera work! A+ to the person behind the shutter. Some sick air too! Those pics solidify why this truggy should have it's own section on RC-M!

Haha, that was mom playing with her camera, I have over 300 something pics like those. Just never cared to upload them all lol. Thanks though

Air was insane, I wish there was video, thats around 20-25ft of air, the ramp it self was WAY taller them me, and im 6.2, so that thing was soaring! With 2s, and a 10.5 motor LOL.

Everyone should have a crt.5, I love this car! Probably my favorite bash car

I emailed Mike inquiring about this (us regular mods don't have the ability to just create new forums).

How aabout a 1/12th forum. Since it looks like ofna is relasing (or has recently released) a few other "mini" truggies. I'm sure tese conversions will start popping up as soon as the trucks are available.

Yeah, small scale truggy, or something

Something to cover the LS10, CRT.5's, the hobao one etc

A 1/10-1/12 electric and conversion thread would be nice
