[4x4lover]

I am just getting in to RCS! And I need some help. I have been watching medics videos for 3 days in a row I LOVE UR VIDEOS MAN KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! !! and I was wondering what's the best 4x4 truck kits to get so any ideas plz let me know thanks

Welcome to RCSparks. You will love it here, this place is great with tons of amazing people. Anything you need just ask and you will get help pretty quick.

If you are looking for a 4x4 truck I am assuming you are wanting something like what Medic is doing? A scale truck? Axial SCX10 is what you will want to go with then. Best bang for your buck and very capable of many many things.

[4x4lover]

Yeah I want to scale truck like medic ive wat he's videos and got hooked
and thank u Dribble i have found one thats ready to hit the trails thanks so much u were a real help

[Dribble]

No problem at all your going to love it.

also i was wondering what size tires come on the scx10 are they 1.9 ?

[Dribble]

Yes they 1.9. The new SCX10's are glued on the rims and not beadlocks like the older style. You can get the Dingo as a KIT which means you need to build it and buy all electronics which can be more costly. So since you are just getting into RC's I would suggest the RTR Honcho just because all you need after that is battery and charger.

ok so what would be the best battery and i was wondering what size the tiers are cuz i have a huge sand pit were i ride dirt bikes so i was going to buy paddles for my truck cuz thats were imma be useing it the most

[fordguy8790]

The tires it comes with are 1.9 size Ripsaws. RC4WD makes a 1.9 sized paddle tire if you don't want to have to get new wheels...
Sand Thrasher Rear 1.9 Tires

The battery depends on whether you want to use lipo or not. I run a 2S Venom 5400mah lipo and get close to an hour and a half of run time. The stock ESC that comes with the RTR version is set up for a lipo by default. I believe there is a sticky somewhere on here with more battery info if you need it.

Welcome enjoy your stay and check this out! --->

[Got Raptor]

Welcome! i demand you to get a Lipo! haha They are well worth the investment in the power and run times you will get. You will need a charger that can handle them though. So keep that in mind.

Any questions? Feel free anytime, the community here is awesome.

[4x4lover]

What kind of charger would that be got raptor? Thank u fordguy u were a lot of help yeah I was looking at new wheels but not sure if I want to get them yet and thanks again guys

[Got Raptor]

I personally use a Onyx 235. It has a storage bank of like 10+ battery configurations i think. Can handle most kinds of batteries and charges my lipos pretty quick. Also it has a built in balancer with is a real must with Lipo batteries. This regulates even voltage over all the cells in the battery.

There so many options when it comes to chargers, That just the one i have and it works for me

[4x4lover]

Thanks man ill check in to that but yeah I was going to buy 2 sets of rear paddles so I could put one set on the front Cu's ill be running in sand mostly
