Good to see so many guys interested in RC crawling and keen to ask questions. I am totally staggered by the number of guys getting into the hobby.

Keep the ideas and questions coming.

Hope to see you all at our RC crawling gatherings in the future.

Well, it was this board that got me interested!! I have a 78 Range Rover, so come here for tips... And then I read some of the posts from you guys, and I was possessed by the RC Rock Devil... hehe

Thanx to the excellent videos on your site... that was the clincher!! Well done!!

Yeah the MudCow vids have had more of an influence than I ever expected... There are a lot og guys building up crawlers after seeing the vids.

I suppose they were a great way to introduce people to the hobby. Pics are good, but nothing shows the way they work like a vid!!!

BTW, there are more vids in the pipeline, just gotta find the time to finish them off.

It's a shame you are all the way over in WA, You'd love to see these little trucks in action at our RC gatherings.

"More vids in the pipeline..." Was that a pun hehe
Excellent, can't wait to see them!!
And I would dearly love to see them in the flesh, especially when theres a few of them trying the same obstacles with varying degrees of success and driver tactics...

We will have to get shane to make up a full on marketable video .Something along the lines of tuff truck or nissan trials vids.
Then heaps more people would get to see what our little toys can really do.Darangie do you ever get over to new south ??
Make a trip anyway Very Happy

Its amazing the response we have had as monster truck parts australia we thought the main emphasis would be on T and E maxx's but we just get more and more interest from guys that want to crawl,I suppose its something different not to mention loads of fun with your mates. #Onfire

I like the vids where there was real 1:1 motor sounds... Very Happy

Nah, never been to NSW... I guess its only a 20 or so hour drive from here... Smile

I guess my interest in RC Crawlin stems from 1:1 4x4... I prefer going slowly along a rocky articulating track, rather than fanging along a beach, and the good thing about RC is if it gets stuck, or breaks you can pick it up, turn it over, etc. And with crawlin, you don't need as big an area, as the high speed stuff...
I was watching the guy next door to work with his nitro road rc car... Fair enuf its fast, but wheres the challenge, unless youre racing...
