Awesome man! Congrats on retirement! Honestly a good place to start would be an element enduro, or an axial scx10.2, or a vanquish Phoenix and modifying as you go 👍🏼 servo , tires, and wheels first 👍🏼
Congratulations on retirement, so I am closer to your age and I went to my local hobby shop got set up with a element builders kit 2 and they were super helpful in helping me put a complete custom truck together and the cost stayed reasonable and I upgraded as I broke things or just needed something new. I have several other brands now of it’s but find the element stuff very enjoyable and easy to upgrade, the rock pirates stuff is amazing and I don’t think I have a truck with out something from them. Good luck and have fun.
I appreciate this video. I'm new to crawling and have only been doing it for a few months. I'm proud to say I have already added all of these things to my set up so I must be doing so thing right. Lol. I also have good work light and a rig stand that can also hold my shocks. Both are a must have
Great video and channel all round.. only started getting into RC crawlers and trail trucks recently. Thank you for passing on your wealth of knowledge. I’m a Toolmaker/Machinist so appreciate the quality of the parts you produce for the hobby 🤙🏻
@Rock Pirates RC These days, I've been focusing more on the crawlers. Maybe we could do some business by mail. I'd like to build up my crawlers and am looking for ideas, suggestions, and quality parts. Thanks from Albuquerque, NM.
@rockpiratesrc3828 AWESOME I have the Phoenix already I also have the Ultra also! I can't wait to start building one! I am a Veteran and also I'm with operation 11charlie thank you guys for all your support 🙏🏻 I live in tulare CA central valley hopefully one of these weekends when you guys are at horsemans center I'll get to crawl with you all thank you so much 👍👊💯🔥🙏🏻
Can you do a vidio on your element trailwalker build, i got an element enduro HD and am looking for some guidance on what ibneed to do to make it more capable.
I have bought some of the tool's that you mentioned ,where did you get the bit's that fit in your cordless screwdriver? I bought a $30.00 one but none of the bit's from my tool kit's fit it
Will a Kraken Pro chassis kit work with a VS4-10 VFD Twin transmission & skid? Or would I be better off using the Kraken Pro blank Skid with the VS4-10 transmission.
Will any of the rprc chassis compatible with the ascent? I’m new to 10th scale and have the ascent and was gonna slowly turn it into something completely custom. Didn’t know how possible this was with rock pirates stuff. I know the hardline bed will work but I’m more wondering about chassis and other stuff
Question. Will the element ifs kit bolt on to the interceptor flat rail chassis. Want to build a trophy truck. Already have a Gatekeeper and the ifs kit looking for better options the straight axle gatekeeper is wild under heavy power. Electronics are Hobbywing max 10 esc and 4000kv ezrun motor. And a traxxas 2075x servo
I thought about putting my old 2200kv mamba monster on my Scx10ii because my old motor is burnt out but is it even worth making it fast I don’t have any money but I have parts for it but the mamba monster is all I have
I have the new Basecamp. Im very disappointed. Left turn seems a common issue. How can they putnit out knowing this? Its a big investment for a person that work hard for their money. What can i do without spending another paycheck to make it right?
