there should be more FS posts here as they are so few, this is a centralized location, besides it is hardly being used...

Small engine or hobby stuff should have a place for themselves as they represent replicas of real vehicles and since they are not mixed with real vehicles should not be mixed and lost in misc items not related to vehicles.

Models and RC versions of real vehicles whether they are cars, motorcycles, helicopters, planes, boats, trucks etc should be appreciated as an art in the hobby itself. Even owners of real vehicles can have a mini version.

I have a 1/10th scale Redcat Rampage M/T w/ a 30cc 2-stroke wacker engine. It's easy start and cheap to run on normal pump gas.

But a swap would require a chassis with enough space to bolt the 2-stroke engine to.

I have grown to be sort of a junkie on rc and have a great interest in buying RCs especially the ones that ate not working or condemned. Lemme know what u all have.

On another note what are the top recommended servos out there? I ordered an US$8 servo looking to see how that works out

So anyone in here into crawling? I see a ton of race / track cars but hardly any crawlers..

I got me a RTR Axial Wraith, 2.2 wheels, BFGoodrich Krawler tyres on 2S LiPo. I have a few upgrades on it so far to help improve it's crawling ability. Vehicle uses 4 link suspension front and rear and has 2 locked up solid axles, no IFS here. It's not a very fast RC, tops out at 11mph in stock form (and 8mph with reduced gearing) but it's a blast to drive almost everywhere.

Does anyone know if the track has been re-opened at Ato Boldon? I have a Team Associated RC10 B4.1 buggy and want to give it a go on a track. Thanks
