I just picked up an HPI Nitro RS4 (basically a gas-powered R/C car) at the local hobby shop. I did the break-in procedure on the motor, and DAMN does that thing scream! It hits about 30 mph right out of the box, and with a 2-speed and some tuning, about 65 is possible. It's a cool little car, and its 4WD, with shaft drive instead of belts. It came with a Viper GTS-R body (ew) that I made into a "beat-the-****-out-of-me" body, so I didnt take too much care with the decals and whatnot, just enough to make it look so-so. Then I bought a Lancer EVO VI body for it and did a slightly better job on that one https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png I was trying to find an FC or FD, but the only size they make the FD body in is Micro, which is a LOT smaller than the normal cars. Anyway sorry for the long rant, but here's a pic or two>

In that last pic, the Mitsu symbol (on the side)is where the exhaust cutout is now located. pic 2:

pretty sweet. I have one of thoes things, never ran worth a ****, and now its just sitting in y garage collecting dust.

They make a few different FD body's, but most of them are rare except for a vielside one.



And i belive someone was selling FC ones at teamfc3s.org or rx7club or one of those other forums.

ive got the electric version tops out around 30 and i thrashed the F### outta it, they start off all wheel drive but if u wanna try for some drivting its hard to control but possible, reomve the driveshaft to the front wheels and ur now RWD

how much do one of those cost?



and how about he fast electric ones?

Depends on which one but usually a few hundred plus other stuff, electric ones go 20-40 depending on the motor.

you mean like the cheasy ones from Radio Shack? I never realized that they went 30 mph https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

I used to have one of those and a 1/8 scale ofna.. man those things were fun.. but they get expensive real quick..
