Fermoy Model Car Club ~ Munster RC Car Club

Hi everyone, just registered on here, looks like a great forum!

I'm only beginning in all this, I have a Traxxas T-Maxx Nitro 3.3. It's a 4x4 type truck. Just crashed it once so far, so not too bad I have the reverse gear for it, just not the time to install it.

Anyway, chat you all soon
Seamie

Forgot to add, I'm about half way between Clonmel & Kilkenny.

Happy to talk to you bud . T max nice truck some of use have truggys aswell and have some buzz with them when there running right ,well my one just brakes my heart fecking thing but it wont beat me . We must meet up for a run with them some time rgs g

Yeah Gavin, thatd be cool! Mine could do with some tuning tho, sometimes it kinda smothers and splutters when you dump on the gas, but other than that it's a weapon! But I'm not much of a driver! LOL

All in good time and you`ll get there

Do many people around use Traxxas RC's?

Not in this club All electrick TC but a few of us have them

Oh, thats a pity. Is electric or nitro better? Which do people prefer? Maybe I should have went electric so .... ..... ....

Both have their plus's and Minus's

The big Plus for electric is Ease of use.
Cleaner
Plug and Play basically
Put a half decent brushless setup in your car/buggy/truck and a set of Lipo's and have a ball
Alternatively
Buy a Petrol monster
Fill the tank
Pull the cord
Have a blast for up to 40 minutes per tank
No fiddling
No cursing.

Yeah Vectra,
I kinda see what you mean, I'm currently trying to tune my Nitro one.
I went for nitro that time, cos I had an impression that it'd be more 'torquey' and that it'd have more power... I also liked the challenge of the technicality of it it all.
Was I right I wonder?
