Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / July 2005remote control car for dogs to chase in tall grass ?
Can anyone recommend the cheapest fast remote control car for my dogs to chase around the yard which has 4" grass? Thanks My E Maxx does a fine job! Stick with an electric one, the nitro ones are too loud and can burn the dog's mouth, they will catch it eventually. > Can anyone recommend the cheapest fast remote control car for my dogs > to chase around the yard which has 4" grass? > > Thanks Check out the Traxxas Stampede. It has good ground clearance and is cheap like $160 RTR w/esp ---see below http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXVK75**&P=ML Is there a model that will flip back on it's wheels when if flips over? Something for less than $100 ? damn, how lazy are you? maybe it's time to get a stick and get some exercise along with the dog.. ;) <hey man-- I'm speaking form experience ;) > Anyone know how fast this gyro max atv will go? I like that it will flip itself back upright. http://tinyurl.com/84rl8 > Check out the Traxxas Stampede.

Or should I just buy a Stampede too? I have already boughten it and it makes it through the grass but at quite a bit slower speed than on dirt or asphault. >>Check out the Traxxas Stampede.

Pro-Line Masher 2000 tires will put it on par with a Stampede. Be sure to gear down to offset the tire diameter. >>>Check out the Traxxas Stampede.

Hopefully I can find a club soon that may have some more experienced members to help me out, this is my first RC. I'm loving it though. >>>>Check out the Traxxas Stampede.

Try getting a set like this: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXEX35&P=7 You just swap the little metal gear on the motor output shaft with a larger or smaller one untill you get good acceleration. Keep in mind that you'll have to reset the motor position so that the new gear is meshed with the spur gear. You want it as close as possible without grinding. |
