Anyobody else here has one? Just finish painting my HPI Nitro Z

 

nice! i have one but its a traxxas truck ... wish i could get the Z cover. where did you buy it anyway?

 

Here is my first body...the new one is all blacked out with black TE37's

 

Oh, where did you get the Work Wheels???

 

Those RC's are sweet....That would be a nice hobby to get into.

 

I was into RC gliders and hydroplanes once. Great fun. Your cars look nice.

 

damn money eatter..............

 

I'm a little bit into RC since I do it for a living

Yeah these things are expensive. One of my RC has $1200 in to it in parts

 

Anyone local that want to get together and mess around with the RC?

 

Didn't get into cars much, but flew planes for a few years. This was my latest plane. Sold it last year when I started to get out of the hobby.

 

You got the stage-d kit on your HPI. You have any overheating issues? Or any at all trying to drift a Nitro car?

 

I got a Tamiya chassis TT-01 with a Z body.

With a few hop-ups . I'm strictly drift.

 

I got a TT-01 too. Was debating about turning it into a drift car. But the brushless motor and esc is $$$. Be careful cause you can burn through ESC easily.

 

I got a Novak brushless and a Spectrum esc/radio in mine, its been running great.

 

Post a pic of the set up when you get a chance.

 

i have a mugan mtx3 prospec.

 

Mugen FTW

I sold my Mugen MTX-2 4yrs. ago, very fast car but it's so hard to tweek the suspension.

 

This is cool, I just bought the Traxxas Jato 3.3 nitro truck. I'll get some pics as soon as I get a chance. First rc car for me, just getting into the game.
