  1. Happy Bank Holiday Weekend Guys! Had an extremely busy week  for the first time projecting managing a 'huge' (for me) job! Much more money, but honestly not sure its worth it. Glad its over. Time for 4 days off with my Mrs & Daughter, few beers and catch up on some R/C and eBay! Hope you're all well!

  2. Just a reminder for people like me who own lipo’s but rarely use their RCs lately. Just check your lipo’s. Condition and voltages. I have 20 or so Lipo’s, stored in BatSafes. Just checked the voltages and all seems ok, but two appeared to drop out of balance. Nothing major but one cell was 0.2v out. Just trying to rectify with a charge/discharge to balance out. Hopefully be ok as theyre quite expensive 4S Lipo’s
  3. What do you mean exactly? What are you intending starting with?
  4. That looks great! I didnt go for the Brute because it was white but your decals look incredible on it!
  5. Was going to go out with the RCs but weathers terrible so I compared my Porsches. That sounded good to say! I think Porsches make the best 1:1 cars, and the Tamiya/Porsche connection also seems special Yea, I need more Tamiya Porsches!
  6. You mean as in the actual distributor? I dont think that woud work if a shop was also the distibutor. It'd give a bias of what products they push surely?
  7. Didnt that come with higher than a 40a ESC? Could be wrong? I agree, it looks incredibly capable!!
  8. What Fusion system is it? Is this the first brushless rtr of its kind?
  9. Boring one I know but Im oddly at peace with my current collection and theres not really any RC I really want. Lately Ive been searching every day for various RCs, yet Ive kinda got all I want now. Theres a couple of Porsche, a Volvo 850 and a Raybrig NSX Im after, but not desperate if that makes sense. I feel Ive peaked too early and got the 4 Main RCs I wanted this year (Castrol Supra GT, Pennzoil R34, Taisan Starcard GT2 and an NSX) early on as I sold circa £2ks worth of RC & Video Games which improved the budget. So Ive splashed out on this massive purchase to tidy some loose ends up! If anyone knows where you can just buy the small black Tamiya body clips Id appreciate it!
  10. Blimey! Didnt know Baja's were still a thing!
  11. The original Max 6 struggles with the higher KV of the 1650kv motor, as you found out. This is a lower KV. This set up is basically a Max 6 in a stock X Maxx, which many many people run. Myself included
  12. The Hobbywing Motor 4985 is a 1650kv hence only rated for 6S This is a 4985 but is a 1250kv so is a different motor, and lower kv should be fine on 8S. All the 4985 is the motor size (49mm Diameter, 85mm Length) so very similar to the stock X Maxx Motor. However Im sure I heard the stock motor mount can take a 58XXX can standard without a motor mount upgrade which is cool
  13. This is my concern. Im not an Arrma fan at all, but Id love to do an Infraction build..... Then I realised, in the real world I sometimes struggle to get top speed out of my brushed Tamiya on roads......
  14. Added an extra TA 02, so thats now got an Evo WRC Shell on which meant I could add a second R34 GTR Z Tune to my TT-02 SRX
