RAD2
Re: RAD2
I have a Hawk2 and its an awesome truck! The only thing I do NOT like about it is: no bellcrank steering.
Who got the TRX-3 a week or so ago from ebay?
That dog outbid me until I had not enough money the last second.
Nice RAD by the way... Those spare parts (battery tie bar and servo mounts) are rare

Re: RAD2
The steering is my only complaint as well. Other than that it looks great and has all the adjustability of other brands.BMKTW2 wrote:I have a Hawk2 and its an awesome truck! The only thing I do NOT like about it is: no bellcrank steering.

I didn't know the rad had any rare parts. I'll have to be sure and save those.
Re: RAD2
I ran my hawk2 for a while completely stock. Mechanical speed controller nickle battery and 30-Turn 540 motor.
Now I have LSII shocks (Long/X-Long), Novak Rooster speed control, 550 21-Turn motor and yesterday I solder the deans connectors for the 2S Lipo battery.
Man it runs great on lipo! The motor does not get hot anymore like it did with the 3000mah nickle battery I had before, it runs faster and longer. Very pleased with it now. When I punch the gas from a stand still it pulls the front wheels off the ground an inch or so even in the dirt with an 18/81 gear ratio

Re: RAD2
Very cool. I love the old stock Hawk bodies. I want too get a hawk later on down the road and get the body from TBG.
I'll be using the Rad2 for racing in the vintage class. Eventually I will have a TCP to run, but until I find one I'll use the Rad2.

I had my eye on that rad or yours for the battery bars since I know they are getting harder to come by but wasn't gonna get into a bidding war over them

I might just have to put one of the rad/rad2 back together that I've been parting out over the years...when I get done with all my other projects

Re: RAD2
I saw those videos Sunday night. Fun track you have there and your wife looks like she can wheel that Hawk pretty good.
A wound car is a "What's Old Is New"
Basically take an old car, install new parts from a newer version. Like an original ultima using a new ultima gearcase and diff.
