Bashing,Crashing & Fails

[BertR]

I figured that I would cut up some vids to show what I put my cat through in a summer's time... The only things that went belly up was a broken shock shaft and a wire on the RX battery broke and kept triggering the kill switch on landings. Enjoy!


WARNING... Severe wind noise in some clips

RC4WD Dune reaper rears and sand buster T paddles for the sand ...if I'm not in the sand its reaper rears on all 4. It was cool that I caught that long ass cartwheel with the stooge cam on my head lol.

Cool video indeed! I'm jellous! It's been 100F+ here for the last week with no end in sight! Can't wait for it to cool down a bit so I can take my DR for some bashing!

I'm thinking this is the last season for the chassis lol. I plan to do a complete beef up over the winter.

Thanks Phill...I found a spot on the footage with the cat idling at my feet warming for a bash and I believe you can hear the ring letting go with a few metal on metal pops like popcorn popping in a metal bowl. I remember hearing something but figured it was a rock in the flywheel.... Maybe/maybe not. Who knows!

You never know Bert that might have been it.

If it was it was going pretty well all the same

Good stuff man! I hear the ringing in there, exhaust resonance maybe, prolly a thin spot in pipe somewhere or clutch bell ping one spring maybe stretched or cracking at the bend.
