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!

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.
