Monster truck jumps/flips vids (updates)

Post by Steve71 »



Triple backflip? Yes please lol. Sorry for poor vid quality. I gave up cell phones 17 yrs ago so I use a dig cam for vid but it's getting old. Have to buy a new one after the holidays. Well with the other truck down with gear pin issues right now I decided to get this one out and back running. Got it running, stuck some new Firestorm tires/tributes on it and hit the backflip ramp down in the shop. Been so long since I ran this one I forgot how much power it has (dual Castle mamba-x esc's and dual brushless Castle 5700kv's on 3s). Think I'll take this out tomorrow with the big air ramp and see if I can send it to the moon!

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.

Got the King Sling Clod out today to see what kind of air it will get off the new ramp I made recently. Not bad, but I know it will take more. But I'm gonna have to redo the front legs this week on the ramp to angle it more for bigger air.


Re-titled this thread as I'll just continually post updated vids of my trucks here rather than start a new thread for each vid.

Cold weather + poor driving = broken parts :shock: :mrgreen: I do think I will upgrade to the Derlin wheels now though. With this truck being 11lbs I think it's just too much for the Tributes when it lands all wonky like that. Jumps/action is at about 3 min part of vid.
