I was board and just got some new stuff so i figured I would post a bit about each of my vehicles. Who knows how long ill have them though, knowing me. Ive had the crawler the longest out of most of my vehicles..which has been around 2 1/2 months.


1/12 Miss Elam .15 nitro boat - Just picked this up yesterday. Its all stock and my first boat ever! Cant wait till it gets warm so I can run it.

JConcepts BJ4 - This has the Mamba Max 5700 combo in it along with a Hitec HS-925MG servo for steering duty. I doubled up the front shock tower and added the o-ring mod to save front arms.

Associated RC10T4 RS RTR - I swapped out the stock electronics in favor of a Mamba Max 4600 combo along with a 200oz Airtronics steering servo.

Losi XXX4 G+ - This is actually for sale right now. It has a LRP AI esc, Reedy Radon 30k RPM motor, Hitec 605MG servo, and aluminum front pivot mounts. It needs a new cvd bone and front shock tower. This has the stock radio that came with the RTR T4.

Associated B4 - I just added this to my collection a few days before I got the boat. This has all the stock running gear in it as I plan to just mess around with it and let my friends run it on the track. Ill probably take this with me to also let others try it on the track cause im a nice guy, LOL.

Custom Rock Crawler - This is my crawler. It has a BMVii chassis, RC4WD Super Narrow beadlocks with Moab's, Hitec 645MG steering servo, Pede tranny, metal yokes, pede driveshafts, TLT axles, Front DIG, and standard servo for the front dig. It runs on custom 7 cell AA packs and has a Mamba 25 and a Holmes Revolver 2 outrunner brushless motor. The Pede body is all cracked and such so im going to mount the rare FJ40 body on it. I just need longer body posts. This truck is amazing with what it will climb.

Almost everything is running on Spektrum. It involves me swapping a receiver here and there though. I also have other esc's, motors, radios, brushless esc/motor, and a whole bunch of other stuff just laying around. My room looks like a hobby shop :D

Im thinking of picking up the 1/8th scale gas version of the hydro, baja 5B, or building up a scale crawler/trail truck. Theres just too many decisions and not enough money. Oh well, hope you guys like my fleet.

LOL, yeah i do. I really gotta cut back on the spending but I find it really hard. There is always something else I want.

I should note that my girlfriend gave me money towards the boat.

Wierd. I was just about to do that myself this weekend.


Then, I thought about how it's the weekend, and all I feel like doing is sitting on my ass. :p
