Default RE: My New Mad Force

Well a gallon of fuel later and here i am to report back!

This truck is awsome! i have had a few hick ups though grrrrrrrr!
second day and my fail safe was not set right, the power on my hand set turned off and too my horror the truck went full pelt straight into a wall left wheel first!!!!!!!!
i broke the front hub carrier and thats it!!!!!! $10 for 2!
2 days later i flew of a ramp 8 foot into the air at full pelt and hit a metal post mid flight DOH. my heart jumped out my mouth.

the shock cap broke, the muffler bar bent and air filter flew off. total cost $6 for a shock cap and i bent the bar back! many rolls and flips later there is some scratches on the heat sink and the body needs a respray and thats it!

This truck is as durable as can be and is no slouch, wheelies, jumps, rolls and it is easy to drive on 2 wheels (not the rear ones! it goes on it's side wheels).

the engine was super easy to tune, it hates cold starts but once started it never stalls.
you can crawl, blast or jump tank after tank without even stopping the engine.

Just my experiance so far.
