-Oh, believe me, that Lunchbox WILL WHEELIE w/ the electronics you bought for it!!!
-I look foward to your progress pics, I think the Lunchbox will be the easiest build, then the Stadium Truck, lastly the Touring Car, (I'm into offroad---interested in that stad. truck, looks "sorta" like a Duratrax Evader---I had one), I guess I'll have to wait & see, I wish you well.  God Bless!!! :)

got the car out of the snow today went to pick up my motors and escs today at my friends hobby shop talking to him wha i bought he said he got wha i wanted but he said instead of the tuned sport 26t to try the 27t hpi saturn closed can and the bearings upgrade for the lunch box so he sold me them for £13 about $20 so ill try tha out first i had the hpi saturn 20t in my old lambo and that had lots of power and speed so should be good enough just waiting for the kits to come now

i should get a kit to understand how to do this stuff. haha

ye its pretty simple realy if you get a kit tho you will need transmitter reciever motor esc servo but all them parts are fairly cheap if you have a good look about you can get combo kits where you will get every thing but i would get them all seperate and get what you want not what they want you to want

for ur first i would go for some thing like tamiyas maybe blackfoot lunchbox coz there strong reliable and you will get the parts at any hobby shop or ebay easily  but if you are wanted to go brushless thats a different matter

yeah i would need help in that feild of knowing what to get for electronics. i wouldn't go brushless until i understand how to build one with confidence.

ye i can help the best i can im just a basher but now all the basics

problem going into hobby grade rc cars ur tycos will become shelf trophies  ;D :) ;D :) ;D  :P

yeah haha that would be bad!

still waiting for 2 of these to come ive had the macnum which aint a kit its ready to run the listing said macnum + kit im not bothered coz they sent it and they they also sent a futaba attack transmitter traxxas reciever a cheap esc and a hackmoto 21t motor in it already i know the esc and motor aint as good as what i bought for it but nice to have some spare parts get some pics up soon im putting on some up grade parts

kits where delivered today  ;D done the upgrades to the macnum but couldnt change the motor coz i need a 2mm hex driver but here are some pics









size difference



the / lunchbox \ looks simple to do but the / are 2 \ looks more of a challenge bit more complicated but gonna be fun to do tho

i think the super bandit can take it

hahahahaha maybe if i strap a few rockets to it lol

yes! haha

did a bit of the lunch box yesterday finished today just needs spraying and stickers really took about 6hrs so not bad

are you going to go for a custom paint or the original design?

i was thinking of spraying it like /the a team van\  ;D but not sure yet but the van will be black  or i might get these stickers and spray the wheels the same green need to think fast gonna spray it tomorrow

very nice.

my 9t 45a brushless kit came today so i finished the lunchbox and just stuck the standard stickers on hoping to get the \are 2/ done by friday
and i have tried both the stock motor which i think is a 27t and the saturn 27t the saturn was better just had a bit of a kick more but nothing really big  ::)

Should paint it like the A team van. Haha

The lunchbox is awesome. If only the rear axle was a little narrower id used to for a conversion on a bandit

ye its a great truck good fun ive done the are-2 kit just need to make a few adjustments and put the brushless kit in get some pics up tomorrow

Then you can put a brick in that front bumper thats perfectly made to hold weights since it will do nothing but wheelie haha

lol dunno if it will im only using 7.2v at the moment

The paint job looks nice. Have you thought about painting the rims on that Lunchbox a different color?
