Mega Monster arrived today.

[VancouverHobbies]

I received my MT sample in the post today, looks like it may be a good runner! I will be making a video on the weekend to see how it behaves. Here is a picture for size compared to the Redcat MT, close in size but the Redcat is quit a bit heavier so the Nutech should be more agile.

They're also held on with beadlocks instead of glue. ;)

[NUTECH RACING]

I know.

Have you thought about doing beadlock rims for the Nutech line Chris?

[NUTECH RACING]

We are doing some new design of rim and tires.not finalized yet.:)

The Mega Monster is looking good, but is it just me or does it need some type of front bumper? Maybe it’s just how I drive my cars, but I think the first noise dive is going to kill the body.

if they are like the sand storm bodys they are very strong ive had a few realy good rolls with mine and hasnt cracked yet

[NUTECH RACING]

+1 to Bentley.
please see the new Sandstorm video, we have many jumps and rolls, the bodyshell still no problem. :D

And I did give it a run in today after closing time, silly me didnt bother to pack the rx and batt into the box properly as it was just a quick run in, what could go wrong:D
Well after cruising around slowly for few mins I noticed someone watching so gave it a blat...........throttle servo wire came loose and off she went full bore, bounced off my car tyre, then gutter, then another gutter then finally into a steel fence before it flipped over and I was able to get to the kill button:eek:
Hardly a scratch on it, lesson learnt will fit a pico and setup the radio box properly before next run:o

At least no one got hurt. Was there much damage?

It's a scary experience with a run away 1/5 scale. Had mine take off at about 3/4 throttle due to the throttle servo lead breaking a wire so the failsafe didn't detect anything wrong. It ended up getting lodged under a ute and breaing the spark plug off.
I ended up making up a cut out that fits to the throttle servo so as soon as it looses power it cuts the engine

This is why I will not run with out a kill switch. :D

Nothing at all, popped a ball joint off and that was it.

There is a guy here in the states that lives on the ocean and he had a run away and his baja went off a cliff into the ocean never to be seen again. He got another baja and the first thing he got was a kill switch.

Would be bad to damage your RC but even worse if you hurt some and they take you to court.

I do not have my TBII pro yet but I do have a kill switch, a new Rhino digi 4 servo and a new Lauterbacher Adjustable OFFROAD 4-Shoe clutch for it and several engines.:dance:
