Please don’t get mad at me as I tried the search feature and could not find an answer to my question.
So here it is. What Tote/carrying case do you all use with for your 4-Tec? I was looking through Tower and really didn’t see any I like.
Thanks,
Chris

I personally built a carry box. Its neatly divided into three drawers to store tools and spare parts. Underneith is a large section to carry remotes and my pitstand. My car and gas usually just get lugged around in a duffel bag.:eek:

i got one of those carry on bags for planes..it fits the 4-tec perfect with room for controller and quart of fuel,besides the sides have to little pockest to put my tools,water,rags,etc..the bag is about 3 feet long and 2 feet wide and tall enough.or just go to the army/navy store ang get a bag...they r cheaper then buying a new one.i had to buy one to fit my losi and t-maxx in.:)

u just use a big chest(bigenouf to fit a t-max with pro-line kit) to put it in, and a tackel box for parts and tools.
works great

I use a milk crate. It may not be special but it does the job :D

I usually carry my car and fuel and throw my remote, tools and other stuff in a backpack.

Asif,
Thanks for the link. It looks like it should work as long as I don’t go with a taller body. The car specs say it is 4.875” tall so I would have less than 1.5” clearance in the box.

You should read the reviews too, the people who bought it said many interesting things :mellow:

TRX15pro,
I have two of these (http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXD547&P=7) and I don't like them. The liner rubs through the corners of the bag on top.
I ordred the one from Amazon. It came to $11.07 with shipping.

mugen seiki makes these nice carry bags. I got a couple of them as grab bags at our r/c banquet last year. when I opened it up there was actually 1 bag inside of the other. one was 1/10th size,the other was 1/8th sized. they are plastic lined so any exhaust residue doesn't leak out, and they fit the cars perfect with the bodies on.also they are padded for protection.

this pic shows outside of bag with its handle.
sorry for the junk pics but my work room isn't the best lit room in the house and my camera isn't the best also.

Not sure if you can get them outside the UK but I use a tool box (£6.99) that is ideal for the 4tec, the car fits just right inside and there's a removable self on top, then extra storage space in the lid.
You may be able to order it from...

Tried to post a picture, but being thick could not work it out.

i store all my parts, tools, fuel etc in one of them 50Litre clear plastic storage containers with handles (used in toolsheds etc)
sit my starter box on top, and my car next to that..
i use 2x real long velcro straps that were glued in a + shape on my carrybox lid, and sat the car on it and velcro'd over my car from side to side, and front to back.
it means my car could never roll/fall off the box :)
