    Can’t decide on what 1/5 scale

    I prefer 2wd myself, because I enjoy the challenge of driving one. I have (5) HPI Bajas, an MCD gen 1, Redcat tt, and some FG models, including a 4wd FG Baja. I prefer the challenge of making a car perform, and with some work, and HPI Baja can definitely drive great, and do very well on a track...

    Baja 5B recommendations

    The purple models are the first generation 5b's. Weaker axles, shocks, diff., & usually ( unless changed ) only a 23cc engine. Worth getting an SS model for sure.

    My Baja SS

    Cool story ... I won this GoPro camera at the Hostile Bajafest event in 2009. I was told that they wanted to have video of the event from that camera. I laughed & said Oh you will have a video ! One of the other guys already had a GoPro, & so we both mounted them up for the main race & had a...

    My newest 1/5 scale

    This is one HUGE advantage to having bulk bearings around the shop. Un-fortunately I don't have the sizes, but they are all easily available. You can measure the ones you have. A digital caliper is my best friend ! You will be totally surprised how much better good bearings fit, especially if...

    My newest 1/5 scale

    Thanks for this reminder. Seems I forgot about this thread ... My TT did very well at the NoLimit event. I was the #1 qualifier in 4x4 buggy with it. In starting the A-main, I ran for 2 minutes of 20 ,& in a slight bad landing off the Large back side jump, broke a rear shock shaft end. With...

    My newest 1/5 scale

    Everyone needs to understand when you buying a china made vehicle, you can bet that certain things will not be up to par. These are no exception, but the performance of them is actually quite good. In my first run I had issues with a Rear dogbone pin ( broke / fell out ), The rear shocks had a...

    My newest 1/5 scale

    Thanks. I got this job that like the most awesome thing & tempting / trouble thing. I work at Largescalerc, I'm not advertising, just explaining why I have 5 1/5 scales & take my time when building them. It needs a few more tweaks before I run it, but it is fully functional, if I do decide to...
