Nylint

[BigPaul]

How many of you guys are running Nylints? I have a T-Maxx I use for racing but I picked up one of these a few months ago and I am loving the slow stuff now. I have been impressed so far. Check the "custom" soft top.

I have a couple of 1:6 scorpions that my kids run.

 

[Toom]

yeah those things are tight, especially for buying as a rtr kit

 

[Dude]

I have a few. how many do ya want? :redneck:

 

[smr4runner]

Holy chit dude. It looks just like mine.
Here are pics of it before I put the finishing touchs on it.
I don't use this body. It just sits in the garage. The last
two pics is what I use.
Here's a vid I made a few months back using a bullet cam to film with.

Looks sweet. I painted mine last night but my daughter ran it over with her scorion before the paint cured and off it flaked :haha:. Now I going to try and dye the tube stuff and see if it lasts longer.

Sweet video. What'd you use for the onboard camera?

I bought myself a 1:6 Nylint for Christmas :Good: and have been pretty impressed w/ it. The weak steering's the only thing that bugs me. Are there any good bang-for-the-buck solutions to get more steering power? 1:6 hydro assist? :redneck:

I have the 1:18 Nylint that I have been playing with, but I was at Wal Mart today and they had the 1:6 model for $49 so I bought that one (they still had 4 left). I'll let the girlfriend play with the other one now.

 

[BigPaul]

49 bucks? I got ripped off

 

[ManiacMagoo]

Good luck finding them. Most wont order anymore because they want them gone because walmart wont be selling them anymore. They just dropped the price in the last month or so.

Sweet deal Brent.
I'm still waiting for my chassis replacement to arrive. Been waiting since Jan. Found that some that have been waiting this long actually got there replacements a couple of weeks ago.

I'm deciding what kind of paint scheme I want to do on this one...I really don't like the bright orange color. I wish I could find a Taco body.

 

[smr4runner]

Yea. The body sat in the garage for few months. I couldn't stand the site of the color. I was going to give it away but since my son likes speed rather than crawlin' I put some time in detailing it and slapped on the chassis that the Tundra body came on.
Here is what it looks like at its current state. Its been bashed on abit and the paint is holding up pretty well.

 

[ManiacMagoo]

That looks cool. Just needs an action figure .

 

[Roccrawler]

i NEED ONE.....

 

[TacOffRd]

Anybody know of a place online that sells just rc truck bodies? I'm trying to find a new body for this Nylint, but I can't find any that are just the bodies.

Hey Mike, when you cut the belly on the Nylint, what did you do about the battery and the on/off switch?
