Default Question

Hey, whats up guys? I was wondering if you can take rc trucks mudding? Lol. Like will it mess anything up? With either elcectric or gas.. Perferibally electric. I am kinda wanting to get one just to mess around with when im bored, prefferablly one with quite a bit of power and one that I can put alot of mods on it. So what all is out there that would fit those requirements that you guys know of? And can you get them wet/muddy and they will not screw up? Thanks alot, Tyler.

I go mudding with full scale trucks. I love doing it but mud takes a toll on the drivetrain and brakes. You have to make sure its super clean after every play to make sure no mud dries anywhere. I just dont think its worth the hassle on an rc scale truck. At least a full size truck you can pressure wash. An rc truck you have to dissasemble it to get it clean.

Seal the electronics and you should be fine, at least in the short term. Lots of people drive their rc trucks in mud.
But twomanytoys is correct, the mud will eventually take it's toll and cleaning is a must.
