Whats everyone been up to?
So, you guys running your RC's, if not what have you been up to, its been a little slow on the forums and our other places (facebook, twitter, etc.) and just wanted to see what everyone has been up to.
I am definately running on saturday!!! Will make some video, i want to show off the megae's with the brushless systems in them, they are wicked fast.

RE: Whats everyone been up to?
I'm working on getting the MXT up and running. It seems that the airleak wasn't infact in the carb but there is a crack in my head.......the cooling head lol. And a couple days before I was running my Losi and another tree just jumped out in front of me So then the nut in the servo saver popped off and we went to the hobbystore to get a nut.......but since the losi is American and I needed a locknut, they didn't have the right size.
I'm also leaving for Maine on Sunday morning and I won't be back till' the 20th. Going Canoeing in the Alagash.

Havn't been running at all. []
Business took my parents to Athens Greece for almost a year. so I have not only had to keep my life, kids, home job, going but have also been upkeeping and maintaining my parents place which is an hour from my house and it is a huge house with about 20 acres. (most of which gets mowed[:@])
I almost forget what a hobby is?
Can anyone remind me? lol

I have my big block MXT-2S ready. I found out that I only needed to raise the throttle servo .450" and I could use the stock brake arm. Just had to flip the linkage part under the servo arm instead of being on top. Which worked out great. I gotta take the airfilter back off cause I forgot to insert the carb restrictor.....Got ahead of myself.
Other than setting the linkages with the radio, she's ready to rip. Just gotta find tha darn time now.......

RE: Whats everyone been up to?
Here's something else I have been stirring the pot on............
I have always like tractor pulls growing up as a kid(and still do), so I thought it would be cool to build one. I am using the MXT-2S ring and pinion for the rear end. The engine will be at the very front just like the real things as well as the fuel tank. I'm looking at a chassis length of about 14-15 inches. It will be powered by a small block..

I went out to the lake took the rxt and rxb. Burnt 3/4 of a gallon. Let mom drive the rxb and the antenna wire broke and ran away on her. Fixed that then I was full speed down a gravel road cranked the wheels and nailed my real car with gravel and cracked my windshield, lost my air filter so now I have to tear it down. Broke my pull start on the rxb. I beat the living beep beep beep outta them this weekend and they just kept goin.

Ya it was a blast but I only have a gallon left. Now I have to drive an hour and a half to get more fuel. I panic when I only have a gallon left. And my niece wants to drive almost everyday. I think she is addicted........
