Haha, thanks! Hmm, my aunt and cousin were out so it was a one man production just now... Made a ramp but had my hands full to carry it. Tested the ramp in the backyard though, the buggy caught some serious airtime in that confined space! Nearly buanged the wall also, haha!

On the second try off the ramp, the buggy nosedived, landed on its wing after a tumble and managed to tear off one wing mount from the rear shock tower plus also ripped off the head from one titanium screw and bent the other. Heng got spare wing mounts... The buggy probably nosedived as I cut the throttle in mid-air and the drag brake came on. -_-"""

Haha yea!!! I was shocked to see the buggy fly up almost a metre (maybe I see wrongly, could be just 50-60cm) after acceleration from zero just less than 2m away from the ramp. The ramp was made out of a box with my thick maths textbook inside to weigh it down and stop the ramp from moving and with my folder as the slope. Height is probably about 2 inches. Imagine if I had enough space to gun the buggy full throttle!!!

Those were gas buggies? I saw a Kyosho vid of the buggies jumping that high and then just before it turns turtle in mid-air, the drivers brake and make the buggy's nose come down for a perfect landing. I ish wanna make a vid like that leh...
