    Noob w/ WK questions

    Hey everyone, New to the forum, obviously. I got my son a Wheely King back in May and it's proved itself to be a solid little basher. That being said, I do want to make some upgrades to remedy an issue and get more speed out of it. First, the driveshafts. My son seems to get the front...

    Noob cage welding.. How do *you* do it?

    New. Checking in from Hawaii. Look forward to Crawling and FPV down the line.

    Good day, everyone. I'm new to the Crawler world, but not to RC. I've been flying fixed wing RC for about two years, FPV for one. While chasing down ideas for a potential ground based FPV rig, i've stumbled across this website and feel that, much like FPVLab and RCGroups, is a haven for...
