It's a Losi 8ight 3.0 buggy. I was just trying to show a racing buddy my battery tray mod. Moved it from the rear to the front of the vehicle for more steering across the board. For some reason the site we normally use for stuff like this wouldn't allow uploads so I posted here and linked to them.

I have some sailplanes as well, a few foamies, a 3.5 meter scale Chinese ARF and a scratch built 3.3 meter Hall Cherokee II vintage scale woody. The bigger birds have yet to fly because I kinda gave up after building a giant scale tug to entice our club members to get into scale aerotowing, only to have the club vaporize shortly thereafter. :x I can't believe that in a town the size and makeup of Austin, we don't have more people interested in soaring. It can be extremely relaxing and fun, or you can get into contest flying and high power winch launches to get your adrenaline pumping.

And here's a vid of a plane exactly like mine pulling up a 43 pound monster of a sailplane.

That was nice. I love that low pass whistle.
Those big birds really fly nicely.

I'll be getting the itch again, if I watch those videos enough.
