This is my RC. It is made from a HPI Wheely King, and about three other trucks. It also has locking differentials and a lot more.









What do you think?

Awesome, I really need to get some pics of mine now that I have it painted just like Chery... granted I did a pretty crappy job painting, but hey, I ain't an artist.

Here are a couple of pics of my RC's. Both have frames and a number of parts that are hand made. The comp rig can have four wheel steering and does have four wheel drive, front wheel drive or rear wheel drive. Both weigh about six to eight pounds, very low CG.

Heres my crawler. Not a jeep but its cool. Gmaid tube frame, axial drivetrain, proline hammer tires and a fried steering servo. Doesent get out anymore lol. I also have a traxxas slash decently upgraded but needs a new esc. When it was working I was racing it on an outdoor track against 15 or so other guys. Super fun hobby.

Nice color. My favorite. I'm just updating my RCs and went with a Spektrum battery. A two cell lithium has plenty of run time for me.
