When your dogs mistake your RC for a toy

Post by vintage AE »

Even though this looks bad, it gives me a great excuse to get a new body and incorporate some RC10talk decals :D
I had to pull the side of the body out to continue running it, but I am happy to say nothing was damaged besides the body.

It wasn't a retriever by chance was it? The feathers are slobbered on, and the skin is punctured, but the "meat" still appears perfect.

i have had doxie's and a miniature schnauzer go for mine. nothing as big as a lab though. after you install the new body also take the time to upgrade the motor so the pooch cant catch it. an i'm with peuge. be sure you inspect the dog bones. if they are missing grab a shovel and head to the back yard :)

i had the advantage on the straightaway but I had to turn around and come back, and that's where he got me. 88lbs of chocolate madness stopped me cold, especially when he picked it up and walked away with it.

cool, i would suggest not taping a stuffed toy to your RC and playing with the chocolate...although you may not have to worry about the pug.

LOL! The pug was just visiting but he's faster than he looks! Lucky for me he was on a tether. :lol:

I got a new shell on my B4 now...it was just a very cut up JConcept Hi-flow body I tried to fit on a trimmed goldpan chassis. So that means it doesn't fit very good, but does the job. I thought it would be fun to do a modern spin on the original box art. The light blue turned out to be transparent and the purple turned out to be metallic, so it didn't turn out very good...it's all chopped up anyway, so no biggy.
