I own 2 AMP's. Both brushless setups, pretty fast trucks. I bash em around, jump em, race around with friends...
But I try to drive for my trucks. I don't run my slipper too tight, I don't constantly jam forward/reverse in rock crawler mode. I also look ahead of where I'm driving, so if i see an accident coming I can usually slow down a bit first to minimize damage. By driving this way I mamage to break minimal parts and have my rc's running fairly consistantly.
But both in real life, and here on forums I see people writing about constantly breaking parts, stripping out gears, overheating motors, and so on so forth.
I just wonder how these people are driving their trucks lol... I've have some pretty bad spills and been lucky I geuss ? I've seen people rip arms off.. crush shock towers... etc.
I've had my trucks upto 40mph.. but they were never running great. ECX doesn't make trucks that are made for those kinds of speeds... buy a Losi for that.
