traxxas t-maxx 3.3

it's great for about 10 minutes at 50 mph, then i lose control, slide a bit, and smash into a tree breaking 20-40 dollars in parts. happens almost every other time i drive it. i just like to go fast...

I was into them. I had a traxxas monster truck but kept breaking it.

then I found an older toys r us one I had when I was little.  Charge time on it was 4 hours so I made this out of it.

Yeah it can run a go pro cam only.  Anything heavier it wont hold.  Been working to much to set it up but soon I will use it for some Dh'n/ Freeriding Mtb in VT.

I used to have an hpi wheely king that was super tricked out and converted into a rock crawler. A losi micro desert truck. A traxxas stampede. An associated rc18 with $800 put into it and a traxxas slash. I sold all of them but the slash when I started skiing last year though.

I've got a Associated RC10 buggy and a traxxas rustler, I loved racing but it came down to paying for that or skiing...it was an easy descision
