Nice video, in particular the beach part, I've been tempted to get one for a while and you may have pushed me over the edge :thumbsup:

It's my birthday next week and this nearly 43 year old wants a ARTR version, if not I'll spit me dummy out and have a good sulk !!

Cheers for the tips :thumbsup: . Yep knobblies and tarmac don't go well together, I noticed anderson do some chocolate tyres that'll give the super moto look and should wear better. I'll make a wheelie bar up myself as funds are tight nowadays.

Deffo getting one, just don't know when as I've got my 1/1 car mot in a couple of weeks, but with birthday money (hopefully) and selling some RC car bits I should have one soon. Saying that I've got that familiar I WANT ONE NOW feeling !!!

My dillema is RTR or ARTR, just trying to get the specs of the RTR esc, ie, does it support lipo ?

yes it does support a 2s lipo but it is quite slow it you have a spear brushless system lying round then put it in the bike the motor is a 540 size can as for the wheelie bar if you take the body off the bike at the back of the chassis there is a thin plate if you get a hanger like the ones ya see in a D.I.Y that they hang the products on.
(go to local DIY shop and just ask for one they should give you it for free as they dont have to pay for them)

Any get one of them hangers and cut it so the loop just hangs out about 2mm more than the rear mug guard then drill 2 holes in the plastic peice at the back of the frame slide the metal bar in and the is 2 holes at the top just put 2 plaster board screws through them holes to secure the bar in place if ya get stuck just let me no and al do a vid on how to do it and put it on youtube for ya ok mate

Thanks for the info, I've a castle sv2 4600kv system, on 3S it'll be fast enough but the esc may be to large, and thanks for the tips on the wheelie bar, I'm a modder at heart so won't have a problem making one, but a youtube vid would be interesting and nice sourcing of parts :thumbsup:
