Put your friends LCG Cheater to shame - Dlux Pro MOA - Episode 1
Рет қаралды 33,892
Күн бұрынIf you're after the ultimate in performance on the rocks, this is the place to start. The 2.2 Pro class in competition rock crawling is the pinnacle in competition crawling. This has been going since 2004 and is the responsible for the birth of most of the scale crawlers we have today!
The truck I am assembling today can be found here is made by Dlux Fab.

@brianginn6354 Жыл бұрын
Seems like we've been here before. My issue with MOA is unless you have some really challenging terrain they're just not a lot of fun. There's no challenge on basic courses where center drive trucks have to plan and execute your lines well. For many of us we just don't have the type of terrain available to make MOA a lot of fun. Hence why I sold my XR10 after only 6 months. Think this is similar reason I see many barely used SCX6s for sale, just not enough challenge to be fun.
@Kburn1985 Жыл бұрын
Downgraded my scaler for the exact same reason. Stripped away everything unnecessary, lcg rails, ultralight body, etc. Could get up everything that wasn't steeper than 80 degrees, boring as, completely stopped playing for a year. Reset to the original much heavier body, took out lcg rails, added original parts back, added a lot more scale elements, added lights, little accessories. Crawls much worse, but much more fun. A lot of obstacles actually require skill, momentum, timing, going slow, going fast, finding the best lines. Cheater rig had 0 skill.
