73? You’re still young enough to fully enjoy it. This can be one of the most challenging and relaxing hobbies you can get into. With the smaller scx24’s you can build them to no end and crawl on the dining room table and have a blast. Thank you for being a part of the channel buddy.

Hey, I'm a recently disabled 63 year old and got into it about a year ago. I've now got 7 '24s, I've built a small crawler course in my small yard, I can use em in the house, they are the most addicting fun that you will have. I'm now getting into the 1/10, I got a gatekeeper, and swap between its body and an ecto body. I had just as much fun modifying them as I do driving em. Keeps the brain sharper, gets you outside, meet new people with the same interests. What more could you ask for from a "toy"

I have really been liking my gatekeeper but I think I might throw on the Ecto body to get it to perform even better. I weighed the the cage and panels, it weighed 442 grams. I would run my body without the roll cage. Any idea how much the Ecto body weighs? Was curious how much weight I would save. Awesome video like usual!!!
@ExocagedRC3 жыл бұрын
I haven’t weighed the body alone but it’s gotta be close to the creep. I’d have to look back on other videos showing Superlite to find that weight.
@thomasvanderpool47353 жыл бұрын
Ok, ya that makes sense. I have a gen 8 with a creep body that is my class 2 rig, I will bring the creep body to my shop and weight it on the paint scale there. Or it will give me an excuse to watch the SV1 videos for the 3rd or 4th time haha. Love the content! Only channel I try to watch ever video released. Best part is I wake up to a new video every day!

Great video Joe. This whole Ecto series has been great to watch. Awesome to seem the progression with the upgrades. I have a Sendero myself that I've thrown a lot of upgrades on. It's a great truck. A couple questions, first do the Samix 10.2 Brass C-hubs bolt on easily? (Thinking of getting some myself now) And could you of done crack of doom with the brushed system? Thanks and keep up the good work.
@Chon-c3 жыл бұрын
@joe ? You have made a purdy good rig out of that 👍 I mean wow.! Dude ? When I saw you get that ? I honestly thought it was a mistake 💁♂️ lol. I don’t think I’ve been this wrong about a rig before. Lol But hey? With all of that front bias … you should try a FULL DRUPE with it & see what that does. You can probably squeezes lil more out of it . I think you could even go to bent links in place of the trac arms. Idk. Cuz I’m just assuming . But I think that would make a really cool full drupe rig (in the back only I mean) That Home’s system is freaking awesome in that truck. That makes it ! And it seems it could even stand going up another tooth or two on the pinion.
