Neat. I'd call that a skidder (used around here to haul firewood during the winter)

What does it run on - gas or electric?

Sean

It runs on electric. I wanted it to be quiet so I could run it around home. It is pretty good in the snow.
It's a model of the machines they use to groom snow trails. They pull a trailer to groom and/or have a snow plow on front.

dude that thing is sick. i always wondered how well those things worked.

It has proportional the trottle ?

I WOULD LIKE SEE THIS ANIMAL ON VIDEO.

VERY GOOD VIDEO ... VERY GOOD MACHINE..THANK .. GUMBI

"It has proportional the trottle ? "

loulou, as it is now it has an
'Electronic Speed Control" A mechanical speed control came with the kit, but I did not install it. I've had bad luck with MSC in the past on other RC's.
Steering is very interesting. There is a disk brake on each track. They are connected to a steering servo. If you turn the steering control, it applies the brake to one brake only. You could be moving at full speed, turn the steering full in one direction and it will turn 90* at full speed.

When I have to buy my WAR-TANK of RADIO-SHACK, I made it function before dismantling it. It was very funny, but it did not have proportional the trottle. These machine are pleasant to lead in snow or mud and on grounds very broken.

That Blizzard video was super sweet Really makes me wish I lived where there was that kind of powder snow. I've never gotten to live and play in that kind of snow

Here in QUEBEC GREG snow does not miss, from DECEMBER to MARCH.

hey gv280z wanna switch places in the winter. i will spen a week at you house in the warm weather. and you could come to my house and freeze your butt off. oh and not to mention having to shovel snow. lol

ditto to what ksully says. It was 0 degrees celsius here this morning and then got up to a whopping 6 degrees. Ugh

hey gumbi how much does one of those cost. just wondering

ksully, US price is around $250. You could probably do better if you shop around. Mine came 80% assembled. I only needed batteries, controller, and crystals. The body is unpainted so you also need paint. Only thing I changed on it was put in an electronic speed control.
To run them in the snow you should also water proof them.
