This is my second ever video shot on a stills camera so not brilliant quality. This is my restored Hilux with a TEU-101BK esc and rc4wd leaf springs. Enjoy!
Sorry, this is a Flash movie. - You don't have flash installed.
I dig it, you are a braver man than I , but then I need to get to my restoration of my Hilux first, before I drive it. I love the angles you chose and the realistic action the truck is doing. What is in the bed of the truck though?? It sounds like a full tool box is crashing around every time the rear end is coming down?
Thanks crash Cramer. It's running the original 6v 4000mah battery which weighs a ton. It can bounce around a bit. Going to try some foam in there see if it helps.
Got it, perhaps that is the reason some mechanics boxes on the 3 speeds have cracks and such, too heavy of a battery. Will a modern battery work in these?? I want to know my options.
@Crash Cramer: Yeh thats probably why. A 6 cell NiMh pack in sand scorcher formation will fit aswell and gives them awesome power. There is a little post which you put a screw in the end of and it holds the smaller 7.2v back.
