That is ace. I really need to find somewhere to run my savage and get a vid of it.

Looks forward to more videos from you.

Dude that is quality, good control in the air to get it landing nicely. Viper I also have a Savage that I have to get abusing, mine is just new and not fully broken in yet, but I know of a disused slate quarry near me...

thats was cool, very very nice controll and good vid skillz.

Call me a noob but how do you control it in the air :eek:

Does it have weights in it or something?

You control cars in the air with the spinning of the wheels. If you spin them faster it makes the front of the car rise up, then normally cars are weighted slightly forward so when the wheels are not turning the front drops.

Edit - Very good vid there! Good control in the air i must say.

Really good controll there. Nice video.

Need to dust off my hyper 7 8 port thingy, but can start it until I get a new starter box

saitrix · 30 May 2006 at 12:59

Ever thought about converting it to pull start?

Kreeeee · 30 May 2006 at 13:17

Fantastic control!

I must take my car out after my exams.

olv · 30 May 2006 at 13:21

that's ace :cool:

jamrowls · 30 May 2006 at 13:35

As has been said you control the car with the wheels - give it some gas and the front goes up, give it some breaks and the front goes down. You can also steer in the air.

I actually bought my first nitro car on Saturday. Got a HPI Rush Evo. Havnt had it running yet but hopefully will sometime this week. Im sure ill crash it many times

Hmm don't really fancy changing the crank etc, I might just see if I can find one on the auction site. Not sure wich ones are compatible.

Edit: Ouch about £40 for a hyper 7 one on auction site!

KizZ · 30 May 2006 at 13:54

Very impressive skillz there

jamrowls · 30 May 2006 at 14:17

Pants- I would stick with the starter box idea. IMO you cant beat them
