@@mrkemblegilstrap No problem! Oh, that's good. Fun to drive the monster in, anyway. Do you have water-proof electronics on it? It's fun to hit a big puddle going full blast and watch the water fly. Yeeehaaah!😁
@@ToyotaGuy1971 No, just the stock electronics for now. I decided to risk it. It looked like such a good spot to drive in for a quickie video. It did croak a short time later though. And when I picked him up something felt really hot so, I unplugged the battery and hadn`t checked it out yet. I`ve had these 11.1-volt batteries for almost a year without being used. Maybe, I need a charge. Or, more likely, I`ve burned up one of the tiny wires either on the motor or the battery. Or he is just sooo fat, that he killed the battery quick. This thing is heavy. I`m gonna buy a scale to find out exactly what he weighs. I need to make a mount for the phone on my controller so I`m not driving one handed. I get to having fun and forget to keep the star of the show on screen, lol
@@mrkemblegilstrap lol Hmm, maybe if you let him dry out some, he'll be okay. Maybe it just needs a charge. Maybe the guage of wires you're using between the esc and motor are too small, giving you too much resistance. Maybe that could explain why it was getting hot. Might need a motor with more torque or change to smaller pinion. Hmmm.....🤔 Looks so badass, though! 😎👍
@@ToyotaGuy1971 Oh, Thank you! Yes, all are possible for sure. On my Challender build, I melted the motor wires and then then the little Jada toys motor, too lol. I haven`t cracked it open yet, but I`m fixin to shortly. I already have a lineup of bigger motors. A huge, 550 brushed motor about the diameter of a half dollar. And a 2435 brushless. I`m hunting for metal transmissions for them. I already have a bullet proof metal 2 speed for the 2435, but it came unassembled and have yet to find any instructions on assembling the dam thing Grrrr!
@@mrkemblegilstrap no its cool i get it --- i have a WPL C24 all jacked on metal portals and what not -- but regular size tires/chassis. Just saying the tires are so outrageous it looks like it could be 1/6th scale at first glance -- i get its a tiny rig turned MEGA TRUCK - super cool!
@@Idontdohandles Wow, thanks, Bro!! The portals and link rods are 1/10 and the ad for the tires didn`t really list a scale that I can remember. It is currently all torn apart with the installation of his 3rd body lift. I`m a newbie and I was having trouble finding a material that I can work with, with only basic tools. The 1st body lift was made out of the box that the C24 kit came in. I ruined that and the motor making this video, lol! The 2nd kit, I made out of some fairly thick plastic. But it was old and extremely brittle and just popped while sitting on the shelf. I am currently making one out of some galvanized sheet metal roofing. It`s been down for 2 mi=months now and I`m wanting to get it running again. I still have more crazy ideas, though. I even bought a digital scale to weigh him on. I`m sure you have me outweighed by a good margin. I really took notice of your video when I saw the weight and then when you mentioned dual 570 motors, wow! I do have some ideas for some other motors that I have. Right now, I just put in a high RPM 370 that I haven`t even gotten a chance to test. Plus, I have a 380 12-volt, 11,000 RPM Dremel motor and a 550 12-volt 42,000 RPM motor, both waiting to be figured out. Let me go make sure that I subbed your channel.
Give it 4WS! 😅
Ohhh, it`s gonna happen soon. 😁
🙀Bro, that looks so awesome! I love it! 😻Congratulations! 🤝🤝🤝
P.S. I guess it was true, what I heard about the flooding, I hope it recedes soon.
Oh, Thank you, my friend. Very kind of you to say 🙂 Hah, this is nothing like when it really rains. But, that's not very often.
@@mrkemblegilstrap No problem!

I feel happy
Thats outrageous lookin/! At first before you can tell the 1/18 cale of a C24, it looks GIANT lol!
@@Idontdohandles Hi! Thank you 🙏 I'm sorry, but are you asking the scale? If so, I think that it's 1/16.
