THat looks very nice. Did you buy it from Clayton? I was thinking about one, although parts are a little tougher to get.

OK yolonda21 where did you get that beauty I found it at fusion hobbies but big bucks in euros.


The Crypton 4WD sets new standards for durability, power train layout and variability. An artful, tried and tested all-wheel-drive concept made to exceptional quality and with excellent handling. Consequently hobby drivers as well as racers can enjoy the new way of driving 4WD.


To compromising nothing in performance, quality and design deliberately none of the already known components was used. On the contrary every single part was CAD designed regarding its use.


The chosen mix of materials shows a perfect combination of power to weight ratio and durability. Therefore the plastic parts are made of many different materials depending on their use. Wherever it was necessary the parts were made from high-grade aluminum. Also many chrome and stainless steel parts are used.


To use a lot of shared parts was emphasized. An example is the suspension arms which are the same on all 4 wheels.

$2000.00 for this or $2400.00 for the Ultimate........I just don't understand it's like saying, "Do you think my Ferrari is nice"......well, hellya !!!

Talked to one of the guys at Large Scale RC today about getting one of these.. He said, "they are not worth it for the money and that they wouldnt be carrying anymore of them". I asked for further clairification and he only said that MCD is much better in terms of quality and price. I had heard the same thing over in the HPI baja forum.. Is this true from what you guys have heard? If so that stinks, I wanted to get that Truggy.

From what i understand , the Hurrax Crypton had several problems when they were first released. But the they were all delt with and everyone was sent replacement parts. Free.....upgraded shock shafts ,wheels and tires, front drive cups, front diff cups and dogbones. There new model has all of these things fixed. And I picked mine up for less then half of retail......yeehaw

Thinking about it. but don't know much about this beauty

 

[IMADMAN]

Try sending a PM to member AK-Zip I think he has 2 of them and loves them, he's had all kinds of Largescales RC's so he can pretty much tell you how it compares to a few different makes.

 

[Clubin]

THey are nice, as soon as you see Innovative, DDM, Pro5thScale stocking part's then I would get one, untill then I will drool over the pictures you posted. For what you paid you got a awsome deal, and the innovation in the model is superior to anything out.


I like the YUCKON.

 

[pup1970]

I like how the motor is mounted in " backwards ". That will give alot more in air throtle response.
