  1. Thanks guys for the info and advice. I was thinking of getting a Lipo batteries because my wife has talked me back into camping with covid still spoiling holidays aboard and my doctors at hospital telling me its unsafe for me to travel aboard even when it eases and we can start going again due to me having a Hickman line and I need fluids 12 hours a day and 5 days a week and I've got to be careful with infections etc. So with going camping I don't want my wife moaning that I'm taking up plugs charging normal batteries cause I will have to charge my battery for my feeding pump and also need a fridge for my fluids to be kept under a certain temp plus she does'nt want loads of mains extensions in the tent LOL. I have got about 6 NI-MH which I guess I could charge prior to going and try a make them last depending on how many days/nights we end up going away for. Thanks again guys Dave
  2. Hi guys, I'm after some advice as to which Lipo batteries would be suited to the stock esc on the SCA-1E Coyote Truck 2.1 RTR and roughly how much drive time could I expect to get. I know the times will very with different terrains etc. Also what would be a good charger to go with the battery too. Dave
  3. Hi Grovehead 1, I get PIP and yes it is a nightmare to get. My wife found a Facebook group that you can ask questions and download forms etc that may help. Its called Disability and Benefits Support - Don't Go Alone.
  4. Yeah go into the car park just to the right of the marker
  5. If you go on goole maps, look for xscape. You will notice a large roundabout, look for kfc (whistler drive) and it's down there, I think
  6. Hi guys, I have read posts on here about going here. Am I right in thinking that people goto what looks like some sort off heaps of gravel etc that is otherside of the rail lines. If so would it be ok for a Maverick Scout, also does anyone else know of any other areas round Selby area good to take the scout. I don't drive but my wife would be able to drop me off and pick me up later. https://www.google.c...=!3m1!1e3?hl=en
  7. These are my 2 dogs. Zoe who is choc lab and she has been blind since birth, she had to have eye removed a couple years go. She is now 10 and still acts like a puppy. Then there is Zac aka Tank who is 9 and is a yellow lab, he is Zoe's guide dog. If you take them to field or park Zoe can run circles round Zac.

  8. I think I'll try the foams I got with the Scout. If I don't like I can try some of the foams till I'm happy
  9. Thanks for the replies. Would the foam inserts from Rock claws be a better quality. I have noticed that they are slightly bigger then the stock foams but have noticed the stock foams are softer, would it be better to put the stock foams back in. I will be running in the local woods.
  10. Hi guys like it says above, I'm planning on doing some mods over the weekend. I have taken wheels off to do the weights but I'm wondering whats the best eg no foam, star shaped foam or foam kept normal. I have changed tyres to Losi Rock claws at the moment.
  11. I got into bike racing when I was younger watching Foggy in wsb, it was good seeing Bayliss riding in wsb other week. Love Moto gp, World and British superbikes. Next wsb round is this weekend, then Moto gp on 29th March and finally British sb on 3rd/4th April. Hopefully Rossi can compete with Marquez more this season. Also like TT. If you want a good book to read Rossi autobiography is good. Bike racing is so much better then F1.
  12. Thanks for replies. I have read some where that it is best to cut triangles out of the tyre foams. Am I right then the stock motor is fine or is it down to personal choice.
  13. I am getting a scout in the next few weeks and thinking of getting a new motor and I have been reading other peoples threads about the scout. So some threads say go with a 35t motor and others say go for 50t plus, so I'm wondering which would be better. Also been reading that some of the Axial spares fit the scout, is this also right and would this shell fit on the scout with out looking OTT eg wheel arches lining up with the wheels of the scout http://www.modelsport.co.uk/hpi-ford-f-150-svt-raptor-body/rc-car-products/369571
  14. New Divide - Linkin Park then anything by Nickelback
  15. Thanks for that. Have you got any names of german websites to look at.
