Woh, that tire in the last photo looks to be just holding on?
What did you make the track out of? Looks like spray foam.

Looks like your have a crap load of knowledge about many different models.

Helli's are cool, I have a beginners CX2 that I have managed to run in to about everything I can. trees, road, roof, picnic tables. :laugh: I actually got it so high once I lost reception with my Spektrum and it started to drop like a rock. Caught reception just in time to do a medium soft landing and just take out one landing gear.:blush:

Your kid has one heck of a fun dad!!:cool2:
 
thanks guys! the crawler track is blue sheet foam (for insulating houses) as a base, and spray foam on top. and when it was all done, the hobby shop owner had it coated in truck bed liner. one of the pieces even has a water hazard. :devil2: i have a cp pro helli also. not to good at them yet. but the coaxial blade ones are fun as hell. my little boy just turned 3. i built a truck for him before he even turned 1 :clown: but he has to earn it. i'll give him a mini to work on first. thanks for the welcome. it looks like a good bunch on this site, that looks out for each other.
 
thanks.
looker, we are already planning for next year. bigger booth, bigger ramps and bigger air!

here are some more bashing pics.(click on thumbnail)
