Got a basecamp

[majin]

My son picked out his first truck
I have bought him a few
He wasn't happy with them really tho also i let him pick a rtr on his own.
He decided he liked the axial basecamp grey body so we pickex one up from
team knk Booth.
Still stock other than the wheels and tires
I threw my prolines on em with the front wheel weights in
This thing was SO impressive!!
it trucked its way everywhere he tried to put it damn near.
Gonna widen the stance a bit
Lower it a bit maybe
Want to trim the front bumper or repla e it as that was biggest issue he had
If he could get the tires to bite it was up n over

Oop i lied !! I forgot i also got him a slightlty stronger servo. Nothing crazy just a vanquish but its a vs1

Cool truck! Yeah those tires look pretty lame lol. Good trail tires though. It looked like it was kicking butt in the vids though. Good choice.

 

[Doom!]

He's gotta be stoked! Looked like he had a blast.

 

[majin]

hes showed it off to anyone whos came by and been bragging big time abpout the trade i let him do. might notice we havent mentioned the everest 10... i let him trade it. he walked around and found someone willing to trade an ax24 for it. lol i lost my 2.2 inch rims and wheels in that deal. oof.
but he was stoked and wanted that little guy. then proceeded to run the battery ded around 15 times over next 2 days lol he loved it. so I'm happy with it.
one of those deals where everyone but my son got screwed a little lol, Joe is gonna have a hard time selling the redcat, and i lost around 200? or so on it in just parts wheels and tires.. worst part... now i gotta reorder those rims and wheels for the bouncer cause thats what they were for. i just let him run them for the weekend intending on putting them back on once we got home... welp good times lol

Sounds like you guys were made for each other. Good for both of you. Rare that a Dad and son can relate like you do.

Great looking truck.

Excellent choice of trucks, very capable rig, not to mention so much aftermarket support, you'll be able to spend endless hours together, figuring out what you want to do with it.

 

[majin]

holy damn... i gotta get myself one of these!!! its frikking awesome. drove it today for the first time and waws blown away!!

 

[majin]

Well I broke it
I swapped out the stock motor for a hobywing quickrun fusion pro
Took for short little test
Loved it
Well then I got a rope wrapped around the rear axle and snapped my portal gears.
Oopsie
Ordering a new gear
Was doing amazing before I happened lol

 

[Doom!]

Rope bad, do not run over rope, rope bad.

I'm woth @Doom! I'm starting to hate you

That is so sick man. That entire section looks like a lot of fun. That last big gap in the boards - I think you need to tighten that ip just a tad.

 

[Tunedfrog]

I love the slow crawl you get out of that rig and again, awesome course.

 

[Doom!]

Basecamp looks at home on the course!
