RE: Offical Blizzard Thread

I ordered a electric Blizzard and it was less than a week before they would have it and ship it out to me. I then canceled my order because I decided to build my own 1/10th scale snow cat from...

RE: Photography - Post your best pictures

I seriously need a new camera. I took this today with my 13 year old Olympus D-300 L. When I look at everything going on in the picture it bums me out I did not have a better way to capture it.

RE: Let's hear what you have for the 1:1 real car??

The fiberglass body kit is pretty beat up. I was a nice surprise to see how badly you can smash it against rocks and it just bounces back.

The wheel hop is no worse than it was stock. I will be...

RE: Let's hear what you have for the 1:1 real car??

I have a HP44 front axle and a D60 rear.

I had to do some very minor trimming front and rear to get rid of any rubbing issues. Right now if I turn to full lock in the direction of a front tire...

Drag racing is a great way to fall asleep. I prefer using minutes to keep track of the time it takes to cover a quarter mile. Sometimes Hours will be used.

RE: Does New Bright RC Really fit into the Category of Unusual RC?

They are R/C and toys. Unusual, NO. They are just another crawler. The bodies are even more useful for crawlers that want a very realistic look. For the most part anyone wanting to make a R/C scale...

Yes, your newbright discussions are about crawlers.

RE: LB Getting Ready for SNOW - Kyosho EP Blizzard DF-300 Thread!

Snow cats are definitely not for speed. They are built to go anywhere in very soft ground conditions. Real snow cats are lucky to go 15mph downhill.

I found a couple links for some good video for inspiration to modifying the Blizzard to a Snow cat.
