OK,OK,OK ! I was going to wait till I had some video.

Last Thursday I spent the day at the track with my 4x4 Slashy and the LST2/Truggy.

The truggy was AWESOME !!!!! Handled predictably and went where I pointed it. It jumped better than I had hoped, nice and level. It was about 75 degrees outside and the RC's temps were perfect,nothing over 90degrees. I also got about (guessing)17-20minute runs with the 3300mah 5s packs. I spent the 2 packs getting used to the truck so I wasn't exactly killing it so my run times will shorten.
And I was very happy with the smart diff in the center, It's the bomb for sure. I only had the 2 5s packs with me and no charger, I packed light like a dummy. I brought the camera to get video but the freakin batterys were dead DAM.
My only complaint, I switched to the Losi 4.0lb white springs and they were still too heavy. The truck was bouncy but still felt planted. I found some Hot Racing 2.8lb springs and they are on the way. FYI the shocks are filled with 25wt Losi oil with stock pistons.
I'm going to be spending the next week or so working on my Jeep in my spare time, I will be hitting the track again soon and will be much better prepared I promise.


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.
