RE: post your home made ramps here
This was the first ramp I built, it doesnt jump very nice and just gives a bunch of air. I have built another ramp in a similar way that is larger with more of a lip and it gives nice distance and air. They are both built from scrap 2x4's nd scrap plywood.

It works when you flip it, but the car ends up getting 10 feet of air and 2 feet of distance. We usually set it like that for flips onto tall grass for a bit of cushioning.

Most of you guys here haven't experienced the larger scale rc's, my truggy is hell of a lot more durable than lets say a rustler is. Don't really break parts if you can jump and land properly. Not a home made jump but still a nice jump, my Hellfire SS
