Here's the first of my big Humm-Vees converted from toy grade to high end. https://www.rctalk.com/forum/threads/size-matters-hummvee-h1.69239/ At the end of that thread is the link to the second build.

I've rehired my cleaning lady.

You won't find it at Walmart. That's strictly toy grade with no parts support or upgrades. Electric would be the way to go for a newbie since nitro engines are a specialty item requiring extra knowledge and maintenance. Is there a HobbyTown USA anywhere in your area? That would be the first...

Just an endless fleet of seriously sick stuff. SICK, I SAY...REALLY sick. :rolex:

I'm messing with @WVNed. Haven't seen him here in quite a while.

Who the hell was THAT?

We've been going to the same steakhouse for the last 5 years but this time we called ahead to see what was going on with the virus deal. Good thing we called. Now we have reservations since they have to limit the seating.

If I'm reading that correctly, I believe it's an order of Kung Pow chicken with Lo Mein noodles.

Absolutely. Full brake.

Any chance you dropped the throttle trim switch on the radio or lowered it in the menu?

Sometimes you get servo chatter when the transmitter (not the remote) is too close to the receiver. Does it do it if you stand back from the car? I'm assuming you mean the radio when you refer to the "remote". You might also want to do a re-bind on the system and see if it changes.

Good for you. That's what we're here for. It's always best to ask advise to avoid a costly mistake.

The size of the block. :celebrate: Jeez, I'm an idiot. Same as car engines, big block has a longer piston stroke and more low end torque. Small block is a shorter stroke with more RPMs on the high end. Different gear ratios for maximum performance.

Use the oil that's left in the pan after frying.

Just sitting still it was probably straining to center itself with too much resistance from tires that were not moving. Still, it shouldn't have stripped, maybe overheated a bit is all. I agree with @tntpoof that you should contact Traxxas. I'm sure they'll replace it for you.

I once had a white Persian with 4 5 week old kittens stolen by a junkie neighbor. I put an ad in the local paper and a few days later a girl called me up and said she was feeding a cat like that in the garage and said it was a nursing female. It had one green eye and one yellow eye. I went to...

It depends on what you're running and what the scale is. I currently have 2 HummVees in the works with HV bead lock tires and 2.2 tires. It's the size that was right for these trucks. https://www.rctalk.com/forum/threads/size-matters-hummvee-h1.69239/post-773816

Electric, but this thread is about 3 years old. Please check post dates before replying.

Good man! Nice to know some of the members here actually listen to my advice.

I miss the smell of burning nitro in the morning.
