Hey All-
I spoke with Hobbico trying to get another thing resolved, and was told that they should be hitting the market this summer with hop-ups. They needed to watch market penetration prior to releasing and producing a project like that.
The big things are the two speed tranny, and even 4 wheel steering! This truck is a bit slow, but it was not made for speed. It was made for jumping, 4 wheeling, and torque, T-Maxx crushing fun. My Force aptly lives up to it's name in those categories. It has enough torque to pull my 10 year old around on his skateboard.
I will probably end up dropping a .21 in it eventually. The truck is already built up to handle the .21 torque with the steel shafts, etc.
Last weekend we went to a nearby park and I built a wood jump where I was literally jumping OVER my standing kid. No damage until I ran it directly in to a curb at full speed (bad piloting).
If my pictures turn out, I will post. I have video, do any of you know if there is a place on the forum that I can post a feed?
