COME ON SNOW......... finally got the electronics installed... mounted the esc so it sits on the chassis bed to try and dissipate some heat as I am going to run a small cover over it...... like there will be much heat up here in Dec. ( ha )
I thought that the WK was a blast,,,, these things should be outlawed have a 35t lathe on order.. will run the stock for a bit then try the other.. was reading another forum - someone running a 35t with a 19 pinion and having a good time too bad NB doesn't come out with something for the snow ? Was down to wallymart and noticed that the 1/6 stuff was not selling ( maybe after Christmas ) |

Hey Gumbi.......
don't know if you still come down here any thoughts on what was in that "blizzard" that you posted a vid link to...... I have run mine inside, and can't imagine what is in there to get that speed ?? - if I wasn't able to see inside the cab i would swear it was nitro - but I see no signs of a motor in that cab .... just wondering as you have one as well - maybe brushless ?? |

phatchantz, That rc is stock. Mine runs just like it and mine is all stock. I saw a post of a nitro blizzard. I think the nitro one is only good if you want to go fast all the time. And running nitro engines in the winter is a little tricky. Only got to run mine a few times last winter, hoping to have more time this this year.
Another type on snow RC's are the snowmobiles. NB sold them a while back. I tried one of them. It was kinda slow and got stuck in soft snow. There are hobby grade versions, electric and nitro. A some people have converted the toy grade ones to hobby grade. Got any pictures? |

you know, I have one of them in the basement somewhere... never thought to convert it to "hobby" grade.. heck now I have enough extra stuff around - I think that I will have a go..
( after the blizzard is done mine sucked on anything but FIRM snow.. on the soft stuff it would just dig in, and then you could hear the belt clicking ( slipping ) "come on SNOW" thanks for another idea |

Just got about a foot of snow. And I have time off work. I get to play with my Blizzard. The backyard looks so pristine now, but not for long |

I think that this is my next move http://youtube.com/watch?v=kYE6894dr3E "brushless" with a mamba sidewinder - I will take it out and put it in my Basher for the summer.... ( so it's worth it for me ) goes IT EVER GO |

i love these blizzards. where is the best place to purchase one of these .(electric version) thanks guys.
One day, someone showed me a glass of water that was half full. And he said, "Is it half full or half empty?" So I drank the water. No more problem. ~Alexander Jodorowsky..... |
