I like it.. it is a lot faster than I expected.. it is fun even w/ just the silvercan!

Willy if you want wheelie! Blackfoot xTreme is probably more verstile as it has big tires and can go over stuff.. but I like Frog, it is an all time classic!!

Oh yeah, finally experienced the axle coming out of the front knuckle that people talked about before.. LOL! Probably time to bust out some JBWeld...

The screw for the knuckle also almost came out.. (see 3rd pic) Time for some thread lock!

Otherwise, the Frog held up extremely well!

Frog bashing video..

My apology for the bad quality.. it is hard to try to film and drive at the same time.. since the Frog moves rather quickly.. ha!

Pretty quick, eh?!

Yeah, no worry.. I guess it is time to play w/ other RCs... that's why one must have many RCs.. when one is down.. just put it in the "need to repair" bin and work on it when you feel like it..

I'm a fan of lots of RC's too, but having lots of RC's has its ups and downs... Yesterday, broke a wheel on the Frog...then took out the Losi Aftershock and cracked a header...then took the kids and nephew out to the lake to let them run the Shockwave without incident...just makes me wish that I had the wood to fix my Aeromarine boat...Today, fixed the knuckles on the Clodbuster and also spotted the parts that I need to put back on the Airfoilz Extra to get it back up and flying...Oh yah, that reminds me, I did fix the wing on the Tower Trainer a while back, need to take that back up for a spin...meanwhile, hmmm, where are the batteries for the Slow Stick, ahh never mind, the winds blowing about 20 MPH now... Think I'll take the kids out for a bike ride...
