RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5

RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5
nope the brakes are very good. its got dual discs.
i have a 12th scale but a hyper instead of a jammin.
finished breaking it in not long ago and i must say its a sweet little deal!
not much top speed....but i had a jato and i say its more durable than a jato.
better put together.
ive added some 30 series proline.
does take abit of steering away....its not that responsive, however it does pay off by giving you more ground clearance.
for bashing 2.8s are good.
the hyper has some additional things to the crt.5

RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5
If you really wanted to go nuts you could buy a extended chassis from RCM. Make it long enough to be a 1/10 scale. I have M3 Gladiators on mine and it has the standard "extended" chassis. IMO, they're too big for a 1/12 scale. Too touchy to control in jumps, where as the buggy wheels really balance well (they just look small). I wouldn't go anything less than 3-cell with a brushless, preferably 4-cell. More voltage means you can run a lower KV motor and run less current.....Or you could stay with nitro

RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5
i have the jammin crt .5 rtr. all i can say is that i ABSOLUTLY LOVE IT! the engine was very easy breaking in, runs with a wonderfuly wild high pitchness to it, (stock motor) and ive had it for 1 year now. i love everything about it. it handles really nicely, has good braking power, and lots of tuning options. haven't broken much on it.
my tires are really really bald, (i love drifting around on it....gonna get some new tires in a while) and i removed the decals cause they were getting crappy. prolly gonna get a new shell.
i also have a recent video of me doing a little winter bash, but running as if i was careful not to hurt anything cause i don't have a LHS. >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZdXWjRquZM

The pro version does. In this case that is the RTR version from that link earlier on the thread to tower.
This version includes the Ofna Picco .12R ROAR legal engine.
Now includes the extended chassis allowing full size servos to be used

has anyone had any luck finding a lipo reciever batery? I plan to keep my crt .5 nitro, and I'm going through AAA batteries in nothing flat.

Depending on your receiver....you might now be able to direct fit your receiver.
You might wanna look into that

RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5
For mods I'm looking to get some high powered servos and a kick ass engine (I'll have to weigh the options on that). As for tires. Hmm, I don't know. It's going to be used in mixed terrain like asphalt, grass, loose dirt. Got anything?

RE: OFNA Jammin' CRT .5
The Proline truck 2.2 M2 compund Gladiators are a popular choice. You'll have to re-gear the truck because the tires are a different diameter, but they are great tires.
The crt .5 is also a great choice for an electrc conversion...

It's mostly bolt on. You may need to drill a few holes or cut something up, but other then that it's really easy. For better shocks, some people use revo/jato shocks for the front and 1/8th front buggy shocks for the rear. I don't know anything about shock covers....
