nothing fancy, just something to get me started in the off road world. it sounds like it has a light knock at start up but im not 100% ON THAT.

Good lookin Heep, clean. I have heard that a lot of them have that.

Haha, those RCs are getting pretty popular. With large spreads in lots of magazines it is interesting where this will go. I bet the kids will become pro at the RC crawling and then keep bugging the parents to drive the trail rig. I am guessing then mini crawlers like TrophyKarts for the kids coming out right after the economy picks up. (unless already out there) :) JMO

its hard to say what RC's they are. most are hybrid builds using TLT axles, axial axles, New birght bodies, blah blah blah... the land rover was built but some guy on scale4x4rc.org as well as the others. But you can gte an axila rtr and make a chassis and pretty much get into it for about 300-400 bucks. depending on what kind of radio and electronics you choose. i have 2 weely kings that i made scalers out of and pretty much love. Though the axles are kinda wide, it sill is a pretty fun rig to run.

this bronco body was cut and custome made by a member aswell. its pretty detailed.

we must talk!

im thinking about getting into RC crawling, i've had cars and boats before but never ventured into crawling.

are there any good RTR kits that would give me a good starting point and i could build off of?

you can send me a PM so i don't jack your thread

I need new glasses. The RC's look like I can jump in and drive.

I'm amazed at how real those looked. The bronco just looked a little too vibrant to be a full size rig, I had to stare at that one for a few minutes. Welcome to the group. Maybe you can help me do some work with my Savage 25, I would love to make a scale XJ body to match my rig!
