Hulk SMASH! Hulk Broke. Hulk Fix. Hulk Smash!

Epic Epic Epic then i broke it. lol warning this is not a toy. but if you decide to play with it have fun! anything you don't break but cannot fix probably isnt worth keeping. this may be life advice but yeah you will break this thing if you get lost in the moment. heres a few Technical advice.1) Use the Trim features of your RC Controller. remember the safety of yourself, property and others rest upon the trigger and the wheel control. The faster the RC goes the mores sensitive it is when it changes direction. when you are doing "fast straights" you want your sensitivity for steering low. (when you turn the wheel on your controller the wheels of the rc dosent go full pitch is a lower sensitivity setting) thats what you want for fast straights it will help you prevent roll overs and would teach you the basics of driving rc at high speeds. At med speeds (trigger at no more than 2/3) you want a more sensitivity the balance of how much less or more is up to you as you learn to control the car better. some advance controllers allow you to program a mix that allows these values to change depending on your desire.2)RC with friends. a good community is a community that plays with and against each other in the spirit of self improvement. find a RC community near you. #trustme #thankmelater when you become part of the any rc community you elevate your understanding of electronics and a consequence science. if you can learn to become good in RC its safe to say you can learn to be good at anything. i could be wrong.3)when all else fails the strong will continue. the cost of ownership of a hobby lifestyle is tremendous. however what other life style do we keep that cost to much but we enjoy very little.Safety rant:if you are not a experienced RC hobbyist please be aware that this giant RC car can and will hurt small people and animals that may get in its path. remember the level of discretion you can act upon depends upon how safe you can operate. dont go fast around things that you dont want to harm. that way if you happen to lose control of the RC and hit something valueble you wouldnt feel like such a sack of S****, lol my experience knows this feeling very wellto conclude XmaXX VS Kreaton8s? well are you a Driver? or a Basher? Drivers like to carve corners and go fast. Bashers looks for ramps and concerned citizens. im a Basher who loves to drive. so kinda Effed on that thats why i own both. but if you dont have a sickness like me. pick the Kreaton8s for driving chills and the XmaxX for Air time and OMGs. cheers.
