  1. Have just this second ordered myself a HBX rockfighter. Does anybody know of any batteries that will fit into the battery cage so i can order some for when it arrives. Can the esc run lipos? cheers Alex
  2. Initially I was looking to buy a crawler a hbx rockfighter to be exact. well I was having a look on model sport and came across the traxxas summit vxl 1/16th scale. 1st question. are they any good at crawling ? not competitively just a bit of fun on the weekend. would it keep up with say a maverick crawler ? 2nd question Are they waterproof to a point where i could chuck it in the lake like there big brother ? any information would be appreciated as I don't wont to blow a good bit of money and be let down by its performance. cheers Alex
  3. would a good idea be fill the manifold end with we toilet paper and put in the freezer to freeze and then fill with water and seal up everything else ? im pretty skeptical of you you can contain that much pressure to bend the metal back.
  4. was going to ask how do you prime a clear shell haha
  5. Cheers for the videos. il have to watch those when i get a spare hour. thanks for all the advice il post up some photos when i get it done and if it turns out how i want it otherwise il have to srat again
  6. Hi Snoop sorry for the late reply only just seen it. i think me and a few others will be coming up there next sunday. il be in contact with paul who runs the model shop in newport throughout the week. (hopefully have my force .28 in ) so will keep an eye on the situation. hopefully see you there Alex
  7. what sort of "dents" are we talking about. jus tbought a new pipe first outing and ive smashed the exit a good 1.5 cm into the exhaust. would this still sort it ?
  8. Can anybody point me in the direction of a thread on how to paint a shell. pretty handy will all paint and vinyl but never really sprayed a shell. do you need laquer after words do you flat it back ? how do you go about it ??
  9. Should have tried getting it out from the other side doesnt matter damaging that surface.
  10. cheers for the response and that answers my question haha was only wondering if normal halfords rattle cans would cut it. that paint looks impressive may try something like that myself Cheers
  11. Hi there, quick question, do i buy proper model paint or will other rattle cans do just as well ?? Cheers Alex
  12. i bought a rex x a few weeks back. i litrally had it swimming top of the shell just above the water, its fair to say i learnt the hard way not to do it again, initally the radio gear was fine wasnt untill the next run a few days later that it all failed. so easy enough if it gets wet just try your best to dry it out. hope this helps
  13. lovely, cheers for the infomation. Just need to pluck up the courage to tune it know. its running lovely on the standard pipe would hate to mess it up Cheers for the uselfull answer there much appreciated Alex
  14. cheers for the reply lads very helpful. quick question is running well now would i need to go back to factory setting or just tweak the HSN and see were that gets me ? Cheers Alex
  15. hi there, bought myself a 3 chamber tuned exhaust for my rex x on a .21 engine. put the exhaust on and took it on a run and it was so down on power and really boggy, so i put the old exhaust on problem solved. how would i go about tuning the engine to the exhaust and is this a good idea otherwise il send it back. will the engine temp increase what do i need to consider worry about ?? cheers Alex
