R/C Scale Crawling in the snow. ( pics )

So i havent had time to work no my car cause of R/C's. I know, im lame right? well, if so then paint me green and call me gumby!

I just find it fun and the bunch of nerds that i have met in the hobby are nice people ( well, most, some are douches )

I went out to Forrest Falls, CA and had a blast running our rigs in the snow. one of my servos went out as i guess the snow made its way into the elecs and it wasnt water proof. oh well!

Pretty nice pictures. Some of the R/c's are pretty detailed. Just a quick glance and you might think they are real in some ofthe pictures.

Thanks for making this thread. It made me feel good about myself because I don't do scale rock crawling. :P ;D

nice looking trucks though; definitely a lot of work went into each of them. I've been considering getting another helichopter. :8

Look like some fun times dude. Whats up though with the Wrangler with the jdm sticker in the front window?
Attachment 11857
Shouldn't that atleast be on like tan Yota or some other Jap truck? Man you must be covered in snow getting down and dirty with those mad jdm angled pictures.

I can't believe that the Grader is chained up, or bothering to try and scrap that bit of sleet off, out here we would call that a thick frost. :1

i finally understood what carpet oval looks like. I was in WI and i stopped by victory R/C. They had an sweet track.

I often go to rccrawler and Scale4x4rc.org
I dont do full interior as i dont have the patience nor do i know how to use styrene ( yet ).

The grader did look odd with those chains. then again, there was alot of frost so maybe thats the reason it had them on. the mustang couldnt make it up to the crawl spot. so we all packed into a 4wd van and a landrover. it was good times.

A large portion of so cal is very high elevation 3000+ the high desert gets snow almost every year along with san bernadino mountain area where boostmante is. The cajon pass gets snow alot too.

Dammit Julio!

There I was just thinking that I don't need another hobby, and you go posting up pics of that early Bronco. The one in red? Is there a build thread on that somewhere?

Neat stuff!

tell me about it. i spent 250 on some airtronics radios that were onsale at hobbypeople fo 120. they are the mx3 fhss 2.4ghz ones. i had to buy two cause they were soooo cheap. not to mention the servos that were 40 each rated @ 144 in/oz torque with metal gears. this gets expensive. ----!

Julio,

Is there a build thread somewhere on the red bronco?

Also, I'm looking for a large Bronco body, that is reasonably scale.
