Caring For Your RC
It is great to have a hobby. It can lower stress and give you a source of relaxation. There are many hobbies that you can do depending on what your tastes are. Quite a good number of people are starting electric RC monster trucks as their hobby. It can be a lot of fun. Before you start, though, you should do some research and find out which model of monster truck you want to buy for yourself.
To increase the run-time of the remote control truck, the simple trick is to charge your batteries several times. If you put your remote control truck on charge and take off the plug two- three times, this would give your battery pack a good run-time because the battery gets charged all over again as it runs. Just do this practice once or twice because over doing it can actually reverse the effect and make your battery inefficient.
To make your own chassis, a blank circuit board or an aluminum plate will do the job. Use vise grips to clamp the original chassis to the bare material and drill all your holes by directing the drill straight through the existing holes on the original chassis. You’ll get everything to mount up nicely that way! If you’re worried that the circuit board might be too light, don’t worry. It’s like a fiber glass board which is very durable and works well on any RC. Overall, these guidelines will leave your RC truck in tip-top shape.
