Obviously I am new to surface RC. I bought this because when I am on the ground due to weather, I have something to do. I don't care about crashing, that is what this is for. I don't care about racing, but I will get better at it. jumping on a BMX track is different than jumping a narrow ramp (although I'm sure many on this forum are much better at it than I am). A few of us here at Skydive Chicago are getting the RC buggies and trucks, so we may bobcat out a track on our 270 acre estate. I see how throttle control works in the air, and that is pretty cool. My goal was to build a truck that is very hard to break. I did it. I just wish I would have started with parts instead of an RTR e-maxx, I basically wasted $380 on the initial purchase. My fault for rushing into it instead of researching great forums like this one. I didn't plan to go brushless, but since the nitro buggies are so much faster, I have to keep up with the jones'. Run times also suck with electric (stock,anyway). I am going with dual 5s 3600 packs with my MMM2200 combo. The truck is heavy (12.6 lbs running weight). I am going to make some webbing battery holders as well, as I have already broken the gorilla straps. The truck will shed about 1/2 lb with the brushless setup (as even the 5s 3600 packs are lighter than my NiMh 4500 7 cell packs). I love the cage, and don't see bashing without it.
