Beach Bash 2010

[idiotsimmagination24]

hey im taking mine to pawleys island for xmas and i wanted to know how much sand you got in it. and how did you get it out?

thanks

[mempey]

It depends on whet you are going to be running. If it is open wheel like an E-Maxx, it isn't to bad filling up with sand. If it is a closed wheel like a Slash, I wouldn't. I have run my Slash 2x4 and it wasn't even worth taking, no traction. Ive also run my 4x4 Slash. It does a lot better but fills up with sand almost immediately. That causes excessive weight and makes the motor overheat very quickly.

[mempey]

As far as cleaning it, if it is a waterproof setup, I just use a hose. But when I get home I completely dismantle the entire truck. I mean everything. I rebuild the diff's, the tranny, shocks, everything. I seriously take every screw out and clean every piece. I also clean and or replace the bearings if needed. It is a lot of work believe me, almost not worth it. I will only be taking one truck next beach trip, only problem is deciding which one to take. Have fun.

[Mulli2804]

is it the slash 4x4 ultimate??

[mempey]

@Mulli2804 No it is a regular Slash 4x4

[1b1enjamin]

how do you mount the cam with the suction cup or ?? thx (sorry my english is bad)

[mempey]

I mainly use the included mounts.

[bhangratantien24]

What is the jeep?

[mempey]

I said what it was in the ending of the video, but it is an Axial SCX10 Honcho.

[rcmaster29]

nice vid again but when come a new vid

if you want do a vid with al traxxas cars wich you own

[mempey]

I'll do another vid when I am ready to.

[MrCrusader67]

that slash looks perfect in the sand =)

[mempey]

It ran very well too. Thanks.

[xsmokedoutx]

Damn your good with that camera! Nice vid

[mempey]

Thanks

[rcmaster29]

and did you know when comes the 6000 subs for jetlag2222? and when you do a new film??



[mempey]

He will do one when he wants, and I will do one when I wan to.

[rcmaster29]

u ar the best budy but what program for edit video are you use or for slow motion

[mempey]

I use Adobe Premiere Pro, but the slow mo is all in the camera. I use a Casio EX-F1 that films at 300fps.

[rcmaster29]

@mempey and where i can found it and give me an idea for slow mo and how about jetlag did you know what program did he use and when come a new rc film ????

[ChaosGeneral1]

whats the orange car at 35?

[mempey]

A Slash 4x4

[rcismylife1]

[mempey]

Thank you.

[wakjob94]

awesome vid...amazing quality

[mempey]

Thanks!

[rcbmxer22]

awesome video! i've watched it like 13 times now and i'm still enjoying it :D

[WonderAnt10]

Great video!!!

[smashNgrab5953]

is the orange buggy the 1/16 slash? and witch do u like more 1/16 slash or 1/16 erevo

[mempey]

No it is my Slash 4x4. I don't know much about the 1/16th slash except that a few people I know don't really like it that much. I love my E-Revo 1/16th.

[KnexThrillsmaker]

will sand hurt it?

[mempey]

If it gets in the gears it could. After you run in the sand, make sure you get the sand out of all the moving parts.

[smashNgrab5953]

@mempey how do u even clean it

[mempey]

Compressed air if it isn't waterproof, or a water hose with light water pressure if it is waterproof.

[mempey]

I use a GoPro HD Hero

[1234adamdoyle]

do you do any "sandproofing" on your rc's?

[mempey]

Not really, Just make sure your receiver is protected.

[1234adamdoyle]

@mempey thanks i'm just starting outand would like which is better.The faster summit or the more realistic 4x4's like the axial

[mempey]

You can't really compare them. A summit is faster, an Axial is slower, but there are many other differences. Axial's are crawlers, and yes the Summit will kind of crawl, but not very well. It is more for bashing and driving over light obsticals.

[1234adamdoyle]

@mempey thanks:)

[durwank]

Great video man!

[bladeis300]

This video is just plain AWESOME!

[mempey]

Thanks!

[eurozx5]

Great video!

[mempey]

Thank you!

[butterbiskit999]

best video ever dude.

[mempey]

I don't know about ever, but thank you. lol

[DukeNukem65]

Nice Video! Cool angles, thanks!

[mempey]

Thanks, I think angles are what makes a video a little more interesting.

[motorfreak12]

hey man my uncle has a house on pawleys island! this makes me wanna take my slash 4x4 there, maybe il see you there next summer! does it not eat up your rc's?

[mempey]

You do have to clean them up right after running. The only thing that has really happened to mine is that the screws rust.

[exmarkmetroguy]

brave mand getting sand in all of your components

[jmloudon97]

whats the song

[mempey]

Seventh Seal by Van Halen

[traxxasslash95]

Why can't I watch on iPod?

[Traxxas4908]

This video is just straight up AWESOME!! Good Job!!

[mempey]

Thanks!

[chevy454rocks]

[11wakeboard]

[ThePJSamson]

[baconator127]

[rctestflight]

what kind of a camera do u use for the slow motion?

[mempey]

Casio EX-F1

[rcmichael1]

[CantoOrigin]

Just throwing a question out there, would you ever consider trading your revo for a slightly used savage flux?

[kirksajerk]

another awesome video. this one was just as awesome as your emaxx mamba monster.

[rickyg77]

Another great vid mempey, How is the summit on 4s?, I just installed a rx8 2250 combo but all my al-cheapo lipos died!, Im ordering 4x 5800mah 2s and 2x5000mah 3s. Do you think 6s will be overkill?, I'll probably get some t-maxx tires for the speed. Keep up the good work and please post more mmm summit vids!

[traxxasman555]

[fernades45]

[monsterGAUZ]

[jazzmannola]

Amazing action video again! How easy is to drive and record at the same time???

[RicSupra]

Wow another awesome vid!

[Fernlenkfreunde]

Looks like great fun at the beach! Top vid! ;-)

[Na8sap]

Awesome, looked like a fun day, love the effort u put in to your cam work..it makes all the difference.

[1967mustang123]

Dude! I love it! The slash is awesome!

[Rccar23]

is that ur mini ervo

[900346472]

ah man seeing the sand spit out of the buggy in solo motion is amazing! Keep up the awesome work! Thumb's up.

[bullsjewells24]

do u have to sand proof your vehicles?

[mempey]

Not really, sand gets in everywhere no matter what you do.  It is a must for them to be waterproof so you can hose them off after you are done, if not take all of the electronics off of the model and then rinse them off. I ALWAYS take them apart before running them when I get home. All moving parts, gears, drive trains, diffs, shocks, and axles. Everything needs to be cleaned and lubed so it doesn't destroy anything. If sand stays in anything it will wear it out.

[philin2222]

this is some of your best work thumbs way up!!!! and favorited!!!!!!!!!!!!! great job dude btw were is your e maxx i havent seen it in a while did you sell it?

[mempey]

Thanks! I still have the E-Maxx, I just don't run it much.

[philin2222]

@mempey cool could you maby make an update vid somday so we cam see all ur cars your realy building a colection

[jetlag2222]

I'm still watching it (again) lol. The climbing sequences with the jeep and then stopping on top of the rock ledge looks like a jeep commercial. :) Awesome!

[mempey]

Thanks man, it was a ton of fun making the video. I thought it would be cool to show off the Jeep body like that. Glad you liked it. Only in a Jeep, you know what I mean. lol.

[jetlag2222]

That was kick-ass buddy! Really nice footage!! Loved the music/video sync too. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun and I love the new bodies! Killer vid!!

[mempey]

Thanks Dude! We had a great week that was over too quickly.

[hotrod5670]

u r back where did you go 

[jtc817]

Awesome video! Did you have to do anything special to run these in the sand?

[mempey]

No, just clean the heck out of them after.

[plorwax]

please do more of this beach bashing or sand bashing and looks like the e revo is loving it lol. great vid!

[mempey]

I will next year on vacation again.

[fathead431]

awesome! may i assume youre using magix editing software since vegas doesnt do slow motion very well?

[mempey]

No I use Adobe Premiere Pro. I shot with my GoPro HD Hero at 60 fps, and the really slow stuff was shot with my Casio EX-F1 at 300 fps. I've never used Vegas.

[hasek1616]

great vid as always!

[mempey]

[WuPmAsTeR]

[mempey]
