13:39 AFTTTTTEEEERRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!! Still looking so good in 2024. IMHO Monster Pickups are the ultimate RC cars cause they look SO GOOD and plus they have big sexy « bootyres » with huge suspension travel which is so pleasing to touch and watch working………. Let’s be honest, grabbing/squeezing big soft tires and suspensions is a very similar pleasure than grabbing my wife’s b……OK ok I calm down.

Amazing find!!!! A friend of my family had a Tamiya Blackfoot in the summer of 1989 and it was so quick that everyone who saw it said wow and/or that truck is fast!! I don't think we would have been impressed like that if it ran like this. Were their better motor options like a brushless in 1989/1990 to make this truck faster back then? I'd love to know what he could have done to make his Blackfoot so fast? I wish I could remember what he said he did to it? It was so long ago.
@mtacoustic12 ай бұрын
Just obtained a FW-190D. I found it to be very fast and reasonably stable. It was rather twitchy on aileron so I added a bit of 'up' to each aileron to give it some washout; which helped some. Also, I modified it to have rudder control. This is fairly easy to do by adding a wire bar between the split elevators and using one former elevator rod for the rudder pushrod.

Can you tell me more about the receiver you used on this? Im just finishing a build of a 1990 - something my dad hoarded away and would never take out of the box and Im finally building it - but turns out finding the right battery, servos and reciever is a bit more difficult than I thought! Initially was going to try to adapt it to a new build style that only has one servo but Im not sure thats going to work - would much rather find the correct parts!
