Mycro's RC18
Hey guys, I just bought this RC18 package from a guy on URC. It was $225 shipped for everything.
here is the link: for those of you who cant view it, tell me, i can quote and post the pix and stuff up, i have permission to post up his pix. http://www.ultimaterc.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=103630 He is going to ship it tomorrow: 12/3/09 tell me what you think :D i am going to sell the LiPos as soon as i get them(please keep b/s/t chat away from this thread, im just saying what i'm going to most probably do) It looks like it is a good car and has been kept VERY clean. i need some 1/18th battery suggestions(non-LiPo) for this, i want something thats gonna last me more than just a few months, i want something to last me years...(not driving time, the time i actual have the battery). I know the "Hi-Energy" is a good brand for 1/10 batteries, but maybe its not good for 1/18th? im not sure, but please suggest any you have. im hoping to get it around next Tuesday or Wednesday, not sure what he is shipping with, but it is stand shipping for its usually 3-7 business days :D. i'll post pix of it as soon as i get it |
i finally got it :D
Here are pix of it, i soon will be selling the LiPos(after the first one is out of juice) It's a very very clean car and it was said by my bro: Quote:

hmm soo lets see who can figure out what is different between the first few pix and these two...
http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k...si/rc18008.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k...si/rc18009.jpg i still need Wheelie Bar suggestions and now i need suggestions for a good LiPo Charger |

was bored... so i decided to name this the pro version of the 1/10 traxxas summit.. cause the summit fails at a crawler.. and this does too... well.. kinda... at least this gets a shiz load of torque, unlike the summit which comes with the 12t titan (CLEARLY NOT A MOTOR WITH A BUNCH OF TORQUE) lol

im now taking safety precautions
http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k...18/rc18066.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k...18/rc18067.jpg if something does happen *Knocks on wood* (hoping it doesnt) then i just pull the outself plug from the charger.. take the pan and run outside and chug it into the street.. i think its worth losing a $130 charger rather than losing your life or your house also, i should be posting a good video soon.. lol |
