  1. It’s on you if you do I did it for a while and was fine but others reported issues down the line. In the end I opted for the upgraded Traxxas servo and upgraded servo spring was more than enough for blasting around the place it’s not like I was ever going to take it racing 😂👍
  2. Got to be honest I kinda think the same for another £300 you can get a xrt or for £280 less you can get a 4s arrma or £10 less you can get the sledge so this is a bit of a wonder. I’m not going to say NO but I will hang off for some running vids but not those freebie bottom licking YouTubers
  3. Modelsport have pricing up £759 https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/traxxas-maxx-slash-1-8-4wd-6s-brushless-short-course-truck-green-1359923
  4. After doing some part number searching it would appear there are lots of carry over parts from the maxx so if you have a maxx v2 would you get this or wait on jennys to get parts and convert ? If it’s gonna be in the £749 bracket it might be a better and cheaper option for some
  5. Hopefully it won’t be another case of do the promo vid and then have a lead time of 6 months!

      Hmmm. Just came to post this. Im more interested than I was before. Great video to be fair. $699 is cheaper than I thought will see how that translates in the UK though

      Mr P The more you think the more you’re gonna end up with it 😂. So the only question now is what colour you going for 😂👍. You could say it’s the perfect beginner size for the baby 😂

  9. What do I do ? Sold all my rc stuff to a guy on Facebook he gave me a deposit and said he was going to collect it once it was packed up so I packed it all up and thought that was that but the guy has never shown up and no longer answers any pm’s.  Can’t return the deposit as it was cash and other than the guys Facebook account I have no other details.

      I guess your not short of a bob or two, i would try to message him saying you will give it a week and if no contact then items being listed for sale but put his cash to one side and if he does contact you in some weeks time just say deposit is here for you

    3. Stormbringer

      Stormbringer

      Did he give a time frame about collecting them and paying balance?

      Put the cash in an envelope, stick it to one side, then re-advertise the stuff for sale.

      That will either flush him out of the woodwork, or, allow you to sell your gear. If he makes contact, you can refund his deposit. As long as you don;t bank the cash or spend it, you are acting in good faith. The guy hasn't paid for the stuff, and hasn't responded. Leave messages on FB and wait a week and you are good to go really.

  10. Well that’s me done folks all sold packed up and gone was a great time and thanks to all. Admin you can close and delete my account now

  11. These so called raffles are the biggest legal scam to hit the internet. You also have the patrons only garbage and let’s not forget the buy me a coffee scam more like illegal begging but but it’s not. Then there’s the freebies that get sold on by some mentioning no names Beyond this point if you catch my drift. Anyway his latest biggest best scam has to buying an address on the Isle of Man so he can hide from the tax man whilst still living and working here 😂. Yep he has made a massive success and now like so many runs and hides. No one will stop buying or watching his content he has the Midas touch for sure 😂👍.
  12. Just a heads up folks selling up, so over the next few weeks I’ll be listing in the sales as well as eBay. Thanks for all the good banter and happy bashing

      Are you selling all the rc`s or keeping a couple

      I’ve only  got the the x Maxx and outcast left now I’ll be keeping the x Maxx as the grandkids use it sometimes. I did have it on eBay a while back but didn’t really get much interest and I thought £750 was a fair price considering it’s got £400 in electrics in it. Maybe it’s just a paper weight 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️😂

    4. Gaz!

      Gaz!

      As always, my timing was way out…..

       

      sad to hear that though mate, glad your keeping the X-maxx, it maybe could spark you back into rc at some point. :good:

       

  14. Agreed I think folks should hold off for the v2 over this one I remember getting the first batch of monster truck to find that had issues and they then shortly after released a v2 that fixed those problems.
  15. From what YouTube has been offering it seems these are like any new release and suffer from the dreaded lack of pre sale testing. Mind you they have already announced a huge load of upgrades 😂.
  16. £579 now on Modelsport still overpriced imo
  17. https://www.modelsport.co.uk/electric/models/losi/14-promoto-mx?&hidefilters=1 I nearly fell off the chair laughing £719 😂
  18. Don’t get all the hype rc bikes have been around for years it’s nothing new, it’s just an upgraded version. like anything Losi though spares will be a PITA for the first 6 months to a year so by that time folks will have forgotten about it. Dare say it will be silly money here in the U.K. as well. Just the same old typical freebie YouTubers giving it the wow it’s incredible it’s insane it’s a must have rubbish
  19. Thanks fella but the blitzer isn’t a dt02 👍
  20. As titled looking for a Tamiya DT02 street rover would be brilliant but not willing to pay silly money so as long as it’s a dt02 I can always buy bits to add to it thanks
  21. It’s only worth what someone will pay. You have your expectations quite high with the price not saying it won’t sell but when you ask high prices things sit for a long time. If you want a quick sell then you’re gonna have to lower that price sadly, especially with the current cost of living situation.
  22. Finally had to part ways with my Range Rover truly gutted and will be hugely missed. Thanks Mr Khan 🤬

      What? You mean to tell me you are not part of the "Million Pound Pension" club?

  23. The biggest issue with the X Maxx motor mounting isn’t the slop in the mesh it’s actually the heat. It’s sloppy when it’s cold but as it run it’s get hotter thus increasing in size and tightening the mesh. So by setting it like you would say a normal mesh (paper thin) it actually ends up too tight when running. Or at least this has been the case for me so I wouldn’t worry to much about a sloppy mesh. A decent pinion and spur gear will be enough to support it when it’s cold and sloppy 👍
  24. Hi fella they might just squeeze in there, this said you could easily modify the tray for a few more mil so they’re not so tight . I doubt you’d get any more than say an extra 5mm from the stock 170 so maximum your looking at is 175 after modifying them 👍
  25. Never tried I’ll have a look 👍
