In 10 years, the cost of these have fallen so much. I can't wait to see what else is available in the next 10 years. Tabletop waterjet??

don"t have any coupon codes, but see your in scranton PA, have you checked out DRP carpet offroad? I have not. I don't race but I do want to look, just didn't get time plus I forgot about it. :oops: They just re-instated them! I had new codes in my mailbox this morning. $12.50 off $150 - 143OC...

I can't find any current codes other than free shipping (don't need code for it anyway) or a free t-shirt. Anyone have a % off or $20 off $250?

I did pick-up a Castle Link cable kit and a RC4WD 35T motor, haven't had time to sit down with it. I'll try it with the Castle SCT ESC and see if it's what I was expecting. I don't have too much invested in the ESC combo, it was NIB $100 shipped from a ebay New York hobby shop. Kind of funny, the Ca...

Purchased the Castle Link and a brushed motor, thanks.

Great, I knew I should have stayed away from mondern technology. Many on a RC Crawler forum recommended that setup, that's why I purchased it. So keep the ESC and use a brushed motor? 55T?

I don't have Castle link.

I'm putting together a Trailfinder2 with a Castle SCT Sidewinder 3800KV with a 14T pinion and a Futaba 4PL. First, this is my first brushless system. When I start to pull on the trigger, the motor goes from not turning to lots of RPM's (IDK, maybe 5000 - guessing from sound). There is variable speed...

Linkie no workie so I copied from the Facebook page... That's odd, works on my computer. :?: I've been to this hobby shop several times. It had many issus working against it. Parking was horrible asit is located on a busy thoroughfare that also has a light rail line going down it. You would have to...

I know a few here are into vintage bicycles and BMX. I have been talking to the owner of this company, http://bombusbikes.com/ about stuff unrelated to bikes and the subject of him and his wife owning a small business making custom bikes came up. Just wanted to pass it along as he seems an honest pe...

Thanks guys. I really dig it. It is a TON of fun. At work today all I could think about was that I wish I was going for a nice walk thru the woods or down by the river with it. Jeff, the rubber mirrors came off of ebay. I had to add the reflective part, I had some chrome decal material in my decal ...

I have a new Johnson motor from a power tool, hate to toss it into the scrap bin. Here's the specs:http://terpconnect.umd.edu/~grams/motor%20HC683LG-001.pdf

Thoughts if it would be any good for bashing?

Looking for a decent 4ch 2.4GHz transmitter & receiver for my backyard-use Trailfinder 2 crawler. Has anyone usd this one? And who makes it or just a no-namer?

Trying to stay around the $100 mark.

it was a good move from an brand equity standpoint. just seeing the box on the shelf at a hobby store will keep their heritage alive by reminding the community of where they came from kinda thing. and the spare parts keep the guys that come here happy, and the guys that come here are the best brand...
