ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Not sure if you've heard of them but........ "They're Here" Nylint 1/18th Scale Crawlers. Right around $40 Gets you one RTR at Walmart, and thats just what some of us at ORCRC did. So at this Months Crawling Competiton we added a Nylint 1/18 "Stock" Class. These little trucks are not Proportional but do have some great Crawling Manners and are a lot of fun. Eight people gave for some great Competition on the 5 Gate Course and a Great Video. Did I mention how tough they are? I saw one fall off a 13' Solid Rock Cliff into Solid Rocks and it suffered no Damage[:-]

Here is a Link to the Nylint Comp [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3265789/tm.htm]"Video Thread"[/link]

i was looking in to geting one but what batts do thay run on and can you take them a part and lock the axles

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Axles are locked already and they run a AAcell Battery pack. They are basically designed like a Mini-Clod(Motor on Axle x2) the only drawback is the Non-Proportional Gas and Steering. At 2 weeks since release it's hard to tell but they seem pretty tough and are a lot of fun, just Check out the Vid.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp

I drive nitro 1/10 scale nitro trucks today. gonna see if i can get one of these for some fun around outside. lol i cant believe im gonna buy this im gonna feel like a little 5 year old buying this.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

I'm not to sure about the 1/6 scale Trucks. I haven't even seen one yet and at $150 they seem like pretty Expensive Toys until I see some readily available Replacment Parts?

Let us know what you end up with.......

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

So far i've had about four of these. i ran them stock for the first four and just got the fifth tonight and am customizing it a bit to make it more durable and dependable. I am putting stock savage shocks on it and am about to open the axles to put some metal gears in. The downfall of the whole truck is the plastic gears and it's belt driven in each axle. It's more like rubberbands and they stretch out. The radio is kind of cool though as it's four different channels and you can switch them. The steering and throttle is not full on or off but it's nothing like rc hobby servo's and such. I have a hitech 645 i plan to put in for steering and as soon as i can get to the hobby shop a plan on a better battery pack. Um, any questions please ask me and i'll let you know what i can.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

oh, i'm sorry i didn't even realize most of you were talking about the 1/18 scale. the make a 1/6 scale also which is what i have.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

So dead belt = new car?

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

could you post top side and front and rear pics as i think the wally world by my place carrys them but would like to make sure

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

I don't think there is any belts on the 1/18th scale(Small) ones.


I borrowed these for you

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Nice they look awsome. I need to get myself over to walmart. Is that your 1/18 scale rock climber? later.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

yes, dead belt = new car. It's my opinion that if you spend $150 for a truck it should last more than a few days. It's not like i was beating it to death.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Sorry but whats up? You need to go somewhere else and cry about it! You know your in the wrong thread..................

No............ All of us are talking about the 1/18th scale ones, except you!


You need to Start your own "Boo Hoo 1/6th scale, OMG The Belts! The Belts!" Thread and stay away from this one.....................;)

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Here it is, 2 coils cut on every shock, soon to be new internals and steering servo, and a winch! Ill have working headlights in it tonight, I'll post it up.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Nice climber! I need to get one and you show me how to do some mods to it. Im a noob with rock climbers.

RE: ORCRC's Nylint 1/18 ($40 WalMart) Stock Crawler Comp
 

Yeah, Nice pics "ArmedlikeTexas"! I like the Flat Black

I haven't laid any Paint on my Scorp yet, but I did find the time to Cut up and fill the front Tires with some Lead Shot for weight. Oh and I Flipped the Rear Links which gave me Some Needed Clearance on the rear axle. Quess I'll have to get some pics.
