Smile A $6 dollar wonder!

Well i bought some random hummer RC for like $6 and its pretty cool... but its not an xmod. Well ima change that. What i plan on doing is this. I recently retired this RC rally car i had because the steering broke. Well i took its rather large wheels off(about the size of the palm of your hand) and im gonna put it on this hummer. (also the size of just your hand) And my dad said he could help me redo the motor and circuit board to program it like a xmod. SO this will be interesting and it will have a stage 2 EVO motor in it if all goes well. And i will try to post pictures of the Hummer RC and the parts that will go on it but i cant promise because my camera is jacked and im having to use my mom's.. So i will update as soon as possible but most likely post in the one of the actual xmod forums instead of here. Thank you for your time.

Not bad.
But a stage 2 running tires the size of your hand? Good luck with that...

And if you didn't have a camera. Simply post when you do. Becasue otherwise there really isn't any point of posting this thread until you post pics

Later, T.I.M

Forums are useless unless you're a photographer then. Its a message rather than a picture board for a reason, so 2nd what BART said.

I have to admit this story is sounding a little fishy. You don't even tell the brand of the RC or the store you bought at.

i think that i know what RC he's talking about. there are some 1/28 at wal-mart for $6 and there's a white f150, a hummer, and some old street rod. i was looking at the chassis and it seems to be the typical cheap blocky chassis with straight spring suspensions and a 130 motor.
