To fix your 2 bigger ramps that are cracking go to Home Depot or Lowes & get a 1/8 inch piece of Luan (sp) or formica and just glue it or staple over top of existing plywood and they should last forever! Nice simple Design - Thank Man!
Dbl sided is super easy . 2 old Door hinges and some metal strapping with the holes for adjustments . Folds up easy for transport but no ski ramp effect . Defintely need the ski ramp to get more air
Also, when using plywood for the face, if you soak it with water, it will help with shaping the face of the ramp as you attach it to your base. As with any weak wood, it will crack over time when put under pressure. I built a big bike ramp with an 8' long piece of 1/4" plywood and soaked it. Never cracked even with over 250 lbs of weight traveling up/off of it. Great video though, simple solutions are best that don't cost hundreds of dollars.
Great ramp info brother 👊!!! My 2 foot huck ramp is too steep...Lol. I've been wanting to do a ramp info vid for over a year, just been lagging 😵. Great stuff bro!!! 🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash Thank you!! I’m sure that ramp makes things pretty interesting...😂 That’s how it was for me too for the longest time. Hopefully you’re able to get to it soon! Thanks for watching! 😄
Im building a ramp 4 feet long by 2 feet high by 4 feet wide do u suggest a 30 degree slope or a 45 degree slope not trying to send it to the moon but want a mixture of height and distance in the middle somewhere
Awesome man I need to step up on my ramps. Looking into some options. Hey just a heads up, in your description it says “ramp” rather than “ramps”. Just looking out for ya bro!
The wood is very thin, so it is fairly easy to bend. For the high jump ramp, the thin sheet of wood that makes up the face of the ramp is curved as much as possible. If you find a super thin sheet of wood and bend it as far as it'll go without cracking, that will pretty much replicate the ramp angle I have in this video.
It might be able to do a backflip off of some ramps. 4x4 trucks are much easier to backflip than 2wd, but brushed on 2s will make it pretty challenging.
SuggleMuffins I’ve always enjoyed the Slash 4x4. I used to own the 4x4 Ultimate and loved driving that thing. As far as batteries go, it all depends on what you want to do with it. I preferred to run 3s in mine. I ran the Traxxas Power Cell 3s 5000mah batteries I believe. 👍
Nick Lang No, but that’s a great idea! I’m sure it wouldn’t be too difficult either. It would make a lot of sense, because these are pretty bulky to carry around and store in the garage.
I was wondering if you had any issues with glitching when you changed servos in your e revo, i change my e maxx servos out yesterday to 2 power hd 20kg, it has mamba 2, it was browning out , I had a little capacitor and it made it much better. I'm wondering if It's the recievers or if I should try bec

Great idea, I'll definitely have to look into that. Thanks for the suggestion!

excellent point to know, thanks!
Been wanting to build some ramps, thanks for the info 😁
ScottzillaRC No problem! Good luck building them! 😄👍 Thanks for watching
Sweet stuff i need more ramps that's for sure!
Thanks for the video bro and the ramp build tutorial. And enjoy your weekend bro!!😎👍
Marko Polo No problem, thank you for watching! You have a great weekend too! 👍😄
All I know is , for me , 3 ft wide is a must for high speeds and a 1/8 size RC 👍. So much nicer than 2 ft wide
Old video but still very helpful 💯
Very good information, great video
Awesome looking ramps that you have
Thank you for watching! :)
Great job, I might have to make some myself, I have nowhere to jump yet, I'll use your designs 👍👍 great video brother 😁😁
Tonys Rc Tech Thanks! You definitely should, they are a lot of fun. 😄
Thanks for this. Those small ones are just what I need. My sons will be thrilled and I can build one of those in a few minutes
The thin sheet of wood is Marandi board
Awesome yet simple ramps. I want to build one of my own now. 👍
Rc Basher Boi Thanks! They’ll definitely keep you entertained. 😉
i realize it's kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream new movies online ?
@Jefferson Dane Flixportal :D
@Aarav Alan thank you, I went there and it seems like a nice service :D Appreciate it !!
@Jefferson Dane You are welcome =)
I’m gonna make the second small ramp 😉😉😉 good video bash on brother
nice~ Thx! :)
Nice ramps and good video
Yay Thank You so much

Haha no problem man, sorry it took a bit.
Lol it’s fine cuz ur helping me

How about a 16 inch ramp?
Thank you,
I build something like this and my kraton destroyed it completely.. LOL!!
EL Valenin hey, I want to build a ramp like this. I have a Kraton V4 6s. Is this kind of ramp not good for Kraton?:)
@@ate-abovetheearth5750 It will work if you build it properly
I don't the tool and I don't know how to make these 😂. so I bought the plastic ones from Amazon. they are really light though. easy to move around :)
Luan works great for ramps!
panelboard or masonite?
Just use 2 layers of the surface layer wood.
exactly what I needed. Thank you very much. You always deliver

I think that the thin wood is either plywood or luan wood.

The RC Genius Good catch, thanks for letting me know.😉 Thank you for watching too, I hope you enjoyed the video! 🤘
Overkill Rc you bet!
notice where the break is on ramp means angle is too steep car is unloading its suspension way too early
how did you get the wood to bend? Im looking at making a ramp like the high jump ramp.
The wood is very thin, so it is fairly easy to bend. For the high jump ramp, the thin sheet of wood that makes up the face of the ramp is curved as much as possible. If you find a super thin sheet of wood and bend it as far as it'll go without cracking, that will pretty much replicate the ramp angle I have in this video.
gonna have to layer it cause I'm going to use it with my X-Maxx and my other rcs
R/C Insanity You might want to make the ramp wider too and also add a support underneath going right down the middle so it doesn’t crack in half.
good point. time to look into wood at lowes.
Can a stock brushed 2s (like a granite mega 4x4) do a backflip well off a ramp? Or is it only possible with brushless, 3s power?
It might be able to do a backflip off of some ramps. 4x4 trucks are much easier to backflip than 2wd, but brushed on 2s will make it pretty challenging.
will these break if I ramp my kraton (5kg) with 50mph??
What slash do you think is best and what traxxas battery’s for it would you recommend
SuggleMuffins I’ve always enjoyed the Slash 4x4. I used to own the 4x4 Ultimate and loved driving that thing. As far as batteries go, it all depends on what you want to do with it. I preferred to run 3s in mine. I ran the Traxxas Power Cell 3s 5000mah batteries I believe. 👍
Have you tried to make a ramp with folding legs for ease of storage and transport?
Nick Lang No, but that’s a great idea! I’m sure it wouldn’t be too difficult either. It would make a lot of sense, because these are pretty bulky to carry around and store in the garage.
My monster truck is smax its a good quality and it’s 4wd
just double ply the ramp and the crack/hole should not happen. thx for the information

corey kurtz If the power cap helped, then I’d try a BEC if I were you.👍 I haven’t had any issues with mine glitching at all yet.
